"Cinderella Man"

Posted by Oldtimer on December 17, 2005 at 16:23:40

Has anyone seen the movie? Some terrific acting in it and a story of trying to start over and really hard re-beginnings that struck a chord deep inside me. If you like "struggle and overcoming" movies this one is rewarding, though painful to watch at times. "Million Dollar Baby" almost wrecking boxing movies for me, but I'd recommend this one.

Russel Crowe has been one of my favorite actors ever since “Gladiator” and “Beautiful Mind” and he seems to have kept his Aussie accent down acting as a Brooklyn boxer. I love Renee Zellweger’s acting too, ever since “Bridgette Jones,” which was kind of a dumb movie, but she shone in it nevertheless.
