About this product

Product Information

Considered one of the most realistic and gripping boxing films ever made, THE SET-UP is an emotionally charged story of the dirty dealings of boxing and an aging boxer who ignores them and fights to win. Filmed in real time, the film essentially chronicles 72 uninterrupted minutes of one night. Robert Ryan is Bill "Stoker" Thompson, who, against his wife's (Audrey Totter) pleading, prepares himself for an unimportant fight but one he believes will put him on top again if he wins. Stoker's crooked manager, Tiny (George Tobias), has already taken money from a hood, Danny (Edwin Max), in return for Stoker's throwing the fight. Danny's boss, Little Boy (Alan Baxter), is a local gangster who's invested heavily in Stoker's opponent (Hal Fieberling). Even Stoker's trainer (Percy Helton) is involved in a cut of the money. All of this occurs without the boxer's knowledge, as they all assume he has no chance to win anyway. A grueling fight ensues, enhanced by magnificent cinematography by Milton Krasner and director Robert Wise's expert pacing. THE SET-UP, based on a poem by Joseph Monsure March, is poignant, action-packed, and totally absorbing, a unique viewing experience.

  • Vintage '40s Noir Fight Film

    Late '40s noir starring the late, great Robert Ryan as Stoker Thompson, a mediocre older boxer who's been booked for 1 more fight that his manager (played by George Tobias) has been bribed set up for him to lose to a young up and coming fighter. The problem is that Tobias never tells Ryan about the "set up" and Ryan manages to defeat the kid and...well, to tell any more would be a total spoiler. It's film noir at its best, with the boxing venue locker room for the fighters so sleazy that you can almost smell the sweat. Along with Tobias, the supporting cast has Percy Helton as Ryan's cut and corner man, Wallace Ford as the locker room man and Alan Baxter as the oily gangster/gambler with whom Tobias has made the "set up." Audrey Totter plays Ryan's long suffering wife who is begging him ...

  • the set up

    Corruption in the low life seedy side of the boxing world. A has-been fighter can't win. Or can he. Excellant cast and acting by Robert Ryan.
