Buster Crabbe has two entries in his cinematic canon gathered here. THE CONTENDER is from 1944, and sees Crabbe playing Gary Farrel, a widower who enters a boxing tournament to earn money for his son's tuition. Proving to be a natural, he soon has a number of wins under his belt and an entourage of toadies and gold-diggers. Will he notice the straight-arrow news reporter who truly loves him before his head swells too much? Then, in THE OIL RAIDER, Crabb stars as Dave Warren, an oil man who runs into trouble with a corrupt financier who tries to delay drilling so that a loan owed to him by Warren will be difficult to pay back.
