ive seen the crowd roars and i liked it and the main characters name was killer mccoy and this is titled killer mccoy but this came out a couple of years after the crowd roars came out and ive never heard of a remake being made that fast so can somebody let me know please
shareyes it is based on the 1936 film the crowd roars....if you goto the TCM website at www.tcm.com you can read more about it when you enter the film in a search...when the film comes up and you get to the overview page, click on the notes link and there is a paragraph about your question....
shareWhen watching it I was thinking of "Kid Galahad".
