synopsis
Lloyd Hughes, a silent star on the downslide, heads the cast of the 1932 programmer Heart Punch. Hughes plays a boxer who accidently kills his opponent (George J. Lewis) with a punch to the heart. Hoping to make amends, Hughes approaches the dead man's sister (Marion Schilling), offering to help in any way he can. Understandably, she tells him to get lost, but by film's end she forgives him with open arms. Among the veteran performers assembled for Heart Punch is former serial star Walter Miller and the "ever popular" Mae Busch.
