    1. Absolutely. I hate that this film gets lost because it shares a title with massively successful (but pretty tedious) film.

  3. Regarding the address of the boxing gym - 1608 S Jefferson. I can’t find any records saying that Windy City Boxing was located there. Were the interiors of the gym perhaps filmed elsewhere? Been curious about this for a long time.
