Plot summary

The boxing promoter Charlie returns from America to Sweden and needs to find a professional Swedish boxer for an upcoming fight. By chance Charlie watches Björn Harring fight off some hoodlums. Charlie sees great potential in Björn and wants to promote him for an upcoming fight, the problem is though that Björn is studying theology and is soon to become a priest. This might not look too good in a prejudiced society of the 40s with a boxing priest, but Charlie is determent to find a way.

Movie Reviews

Not timeless, but fun nonetheless

The action scenes are very basic but acceptable given available technology. Most characters are well portrayed, if not a bit wooden.

The love triangle end outcome can be worked out within 2 minutes but Inga does still come across as a supportive and bright female lead. Hjelm makes for a devious enough heel and Professor Konfors is almost cartoonishly avuncular but still in an endearing fashion.

Charlie's humour shows well as he does the best to brighten things. The pastor himself isn't the most exciting of characters but does manage to give off a sense of both strength and morality.

If you're at a loose end and don't mind older films this is worth the watch, although I would hazard a guess that most people that watch this only see it once in their lifetime.
