SummaryGreat movie....
Content
This deserves a dvd release. One of Paul Newmans best. Also a great movie for the very underrated actress Pier Angeli, who finally got a change to shine.

There were scenes that were cut from the movie, so it would be interesting and wonderful to see them on a dvd release.

SummaryGREAT PAUL NEWMAN FILM
Content
This is a great boxing film starring Paul Newman. The acting is good (Paul in his early method acting era), the fight scenes are great and the story is great.
WHY IS THIS NOT ON DVD?????? CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN???
Im assuming there must be a legal lawsuit, dispute reason because if they have Showgirls VIP Edition out on DVD, it's a travesty to not release this!
I mean i can't even find it on region 0 from some Asian DVD Distributor

This is not an AMAZINGGG FILM THAT WILL BLOW YOU AWAY, and it was certainly overshadowed by the popularity of Rocky with Stallone, but this film is based on a true story which makes it very engaging and Paul Newman is the man. I had to purchase this on VHS from Ebay brand new but I got a great deal. You do not have to be a fan of Newman to enjoy this because its a great film anyway

SummaryA Surprisingly Good Movie
Content
SOMEBODY UP THERE LIKES ME is the story of Rocky Graziano from his troubled early life through his victory over Tony Zale which gives Rocky the world middleweight boxing championship. Paul Newman excels as Graziano and Pier Angeli is superb as his girl friend and future wife Norma. It is a surprisingly good film with a strong supporting cast which includes Everett Sloane, Eileen Heckart, Sal Mineo and Harold J. Stone.

The movie won Oscars for Best B&W Cinematography and B&W Art Direction. It was also nominated for Best Editing.
