Cinderella Man

The early scenes are almost too dour and depressing, but alas, that is the reality of the story. Thankfully, that story builds momentum, and a cast of fine actors--Crowe, Zellweger, Giamatti--do a great job of making you care deeply about the payoff. You won't be disappointed. A related note: this film provides yet another reminder of how compelling the fight game once was (and presumably could be, if the seediness was removed).
