Sonny Liston is fascinating to old fight fans like me. How could such a frightening guy be beaten so easily by the young Cassius Clay? He beat Floyd Patterson so easily and was widely feared by other boxers. He was a role model to big George Foreman for crying out loud. Mysterious loss of his title and equally mysterious death by drug overdose. It is unlikely the movie will answer any questions but this a reminder to myself to look for this flick on DVD.......
