Cinderella Man will win Oscars, no doubt about it. Excellent movie!

I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this movie. The values protrayed by this man have stuck in my mind. Puts me in mind of Chariots of Fire, another good example of a man with character and ideals.

I saw it when it came out in the theaters and then again a few months ago on DVD. It was even better the second time. I did a little research on the fighters and it turns out, Max Baer's son was the Max Baer, Jr. who played Jethro on the Beverly Hillbillies.

Right you are, Benjamin, and years ago I used to wave to "Jethro" when

he was in my town visiting someone and he would drive his big caddy

convertible past my bus stop!

I will have a hard time watching this one, not because of the fighting

but because of Russell Crowe! I don't think he's attractive AT ALL and

his conduct otherwise just turns me off... oh well!
