Boys Will Be Boxers (1928)

Shot in a gym where about 60 young boys (about 6 or 7 years old) sit on the floor with their arms in the air. They wear little boxing gloves. The boys jump around, put their dukes up, bounce on the ropes, spar, etc. One boy sits on a stool in the corner of the ring whilst one other boy massages his legs and another fans him with a towel. High angle of the boxing ring with loads of boys running around, knocking each other over, general mayhem. Some older boys in the ring. Quite cute and funny stuff.
