"Kid Galahad" is a 1937 prizefighter film starring Edward G. Robinson, Bette Davis, and Humphrey Bogart. The movie was directed by Michael Curtiz.

The film was remade in 1962 as an Elvis Presley musical. The earlier version was re-titled "The Battling Bellhop" for television distribution in order to avoid confusion with the Presley remake.

Plot

Both "Fluff" Phillips (Bette Davis) and Marie Donati (Jane Bryan) are the women who fall for him. Humphrey Bogart, as Turkey Morgan, is the racketeer who sets up a fixed championship bout.
