The Square Ring review
A British boxing drama with a surface chirpiness that seeks to conceal its increasingly jaded undertone. Jack Warner dispenses nuggets of down-to-earth wisdom to a number of boxers (including Bill 'Compo' Owen, Bill Travers and Robert Beatty), all of whom are at some kind of turning point in their lives. As always with this kind of movie, some strands are stronger than others, but a rewarding enough watch overall.
