Champion is a 1949 American sports drama film noir directed by Mark Robson with a screenplay written by Carl Foreman based on a short story by Ring Lardner. The film stars Kirk Douglas, Marilyn Maxwell, Arthur Kennedy, Paul Stewart, Ruth Roman and Lola Albright. The story recounts the struggles of boxer "Midge" Kelly fighting his own demons while working to achieve success in the ring. The film won an Academy Award for Best Film Editing and gained five other nominations as well, including a Best Actor for Douglas and Best Supporting Actor for Kennedy. Several clips from the film were used in Douglas' 1999 film Diamonds to illustrate his character's career as a boxer.

How to watch it together from different places
Each of you opens Champion on your own account. Herae keeps the two players in sync, so a pause or a skip happens for both of you, and puts a video call in the corner of the film so you can see each other react.
