Retro Movie Adventures: The Set-Up (1949)

The movie that dares to ask "What if the world of people making money off of someone getting beat up was bad?"

If you’ve got an hour and a quarter and want to see an old boxer have a brutal fight while being betrayed by nearly everyone, this is the movie for you! Lots of snappy dialogue, tons of deep sharp shadows, a story that starts at miserable and goes down from there- classic film noir stuff.
