Matilda

Zany, quick-fire American comedy featuring Elliot Gould as a small-time New York theatrical agent who tricks the world heavyweight title holder into a bout, with his latest discovery, Matilda the boxing kangaroo! When the pouched puncher wins, manager and protege have to take on all contenders in the clamour for a rematch. The pressure - and the laughter - mounts as ace sports writer Robert Mitchum, gang boss Harry Guardino, underworld stooge Lionel Stander and animal welfare worker Karen Carlson all get involved in this most unusual and highly entertaining comic romp.
