Synopsis
James
J. Braddock (Russell Crowe), an Irish-American hard-nosed boxer,
formerly a light heavyweight contender, is forced to give up on boxing
after breaking his hand in the ring. As the United States enters the
Great Depression, Braddock works at a variety of menial jobs to support
his family, but still dreams of somehow returning to boxing and making
it big. Thanks to a last minute cancellation by another boxer, Braddock
gets a second chance to fight but is put up against the number two
contender in the world by the promoters who see Braddock as nothing
more than a punching bag. Braddock stuns the boxing experts and fans
with a third round knockout of his formidable opponent. Fighting with
permanent injuries to his hands, Braddock continues to win and before
long he comes to represent the hopes and aspirations of the American
public coping with the Depression. Dubbed the "Cinderella Man," in one
of the biggest upsets in boxing history, he would eventually defeat the
seemingly invincible Max Baer (Craig Bierko) to become the heavyweight
champion of the world. |
