| Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ] Depressionen har lagt sin tunge skygge over hele USA. For den håbefulde bokser Jim Braddock ligger tilværelsen yderligere i ruiner, fordi en skade har ødelagt hans karriere. Han mister sin licens til at bokse professionelt og må forsørge sin kone og sine tre børn som daglejer på havnen. Hans gamle manager Joe Gould får ondt af ham og skaffer ham en sidste kamp, og det er en chance, Braddock ikke kan lade gå fra sig. Ikke blot holder han ud mod favoritten – det lykkes ham at vinde.

Jim Braddock – The Cinderella Man – går fra kamp til kamp, indtil han kan udfordre verdensmesteren Max Baer – en yngre, højere og stærkere bokser, hvis formidable slag er kendt for at være dødbringende...
Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ] Director Ron Howard and star Russell Crowe re-team after their Oscar-winning collaboration, A BEAUTIFUL MIND, for this rousing biopic. It's the true story of boxer James J. Braddock (Russell Crowe), a heavyweight contender from New Jersey nicknamed the Bulldog of Bergen, who lost his fame and fortune during the Great Depression only to win the hearts of the downtrodden during a spectacular comeback. Crowe is masterful as Braddock, with Renee Zellweger playing his wife, and Paul Giamatti as his loyal friend and manager, Joe Gould. The sharply observed script devotes a significant amount of screen time to the domestic struggles of Braddock's family; developing character and place with a wealth of period detail, so when the comeback starts, the payoff is enormous. The matches themselves are unforgettable: raw, intense, riveting, with more than a passing stylistic nod to Martin Scorsese's groundbreaking 1980 film, RAGING BULL. Though it may sound a bit formulaic, one should remember that this is the true and original underdog boxer story from which all others hail, and it's riveted together with true craftsmanship. Howard has a real skill for plucking audience members' heartstrings, and the performances are first-rate. Giamatti and Crowe play off each other in a rapport perfectly suited to their roles, especially at the ring, where the one's manic intensity makes a perfect contrast to the other's warrior grace. | Ekstra features:
