    #Prizefighter: The Life of #JemBelcher

    La storia "vera" ( storicamente è tutto sbagliato, ho scoperto poi leggendo in rete) di uno dei primi campioni di pugilato del XIX secolo, agli albori di questo sport.

    "Prizefighter: the life of Jem Belcher" di Daniel Graham, 106 minuti, 2022.
    -All'inizio del diciannovesimo secolo, in un momento in cui il pugilato è una disciplina sportiva totalmente appannaggio dei re, un giovane e dotato pugile si dà da fare per diventare campione d'Inghilterra.- da themoviedb.org
