Curiosidades
The most grueling filming was the climactic match between Charles Bronson's character and the fighter promoted by Michael McGuire's character. Shooting took more than a week because of the fight's complicated movements. It was filmed in a riverfront warehouse on Tchoupitoulas Street, a very rough area. Bronson and Nick Dimitri spent days squaring off under the hot lights, watched intently by McGuire and his hoods, James Coburn, Strother Martin, and a few dozen cameramen, technicians and crew members. To create the illusion of being a seafood warehouse, several Styrofoam oyster bins were stocked with real, very smelly oyster shells. An attempt to cloak the fumes with a commercial disinfectant made the smell worse.

Pifias
Dollar bills Chaney waves around at oyster bar are contemporary currency.

Great Bronson Movie

Saw this movie when it first came out and I loved it. I watched it again last night and my opinion has not changed at all. It's just a fabulous movie and definitely my favorite Bronson flick. Fine work from Bronson, James Coburn and Strother Martin. The dialog is sharp and the fight scenes are excellent. This is no "Rocky" fantasy, but a tough look at a brutal game. The film really conveys what a desperate place Depression-era America was. The final fight scene is great. No roaring crowds, no dramatic music, just two tough guys pounding away at each other. Coburn is great and Strother Martin has some of the best lines in the picture. ("Some are born to fail...") Also we get to see some great New Orleans locations,which are painful to look at now in light of the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina.
