Film Synopsis
Casablanca Driver is convinced that he is destined to be the greatest
boxer of all time. In fact he will go down in history as the
worst... Through an improbable conspiracy of circumstances, Casa
is put into the ring to face the champion Jimmy La Renta. If he
survives one round, it will be a miracle. No one
knows anything about him or can understand a word that he says.
His story began when, as a baby, he was abandoned by his parents at a boxing
hall...

The very best sci-fi movies
Science-fiction came into its own in B-movies of the 1950s, but it remains a respected and popular genre, bursting into the mainstream in the late 1970s.
In the 1920s French cinema was at its most varied and stylish - witness the achievements of Abel Gance, Marcel L'Herbier, Jean Epstein and Jacques Feyder.
