The magisterial John Huston, working from Leonard Gardner's screen adaptation of his own novel, gives us Fat City (1972), the story of two boxers, one an old-timer (Stacy Keach) on his way down, the other (Jeff Bridges), a hopeful striving for the top. Also starring Susan Tyrrell and Candy Clark and stunningly shot by the great Conrad Hall in drab and dusty Stockton, California, this is a kind of dingy poetic masterpiece

Year: 1972
