HARD TIMES (a.k.a.The Streetfighter) opens in NY. Written by debuting director Walter Hill. Set in Depression-era Louisiana, Charles Bronson stars as enigmatic, laconic drifter eking out a living as a bare knuckle brawler. James Coburn is the glib, fast-talking hustler/promoter playing fast and loose alongside his shambolic "cut man" Strother Martin. Lean, masterfully composed, period rich classic.
