Cinderella Man
(M)
2005
Cinderella Man is a true story from the Great Depression. Also like that film, it is about an underdog who becomes a hero and a symbol of hope for the downtrodden.

At the beginning of Cinderella Man, Jim Braddock (Russell Crowe) is a successful boxer enjoying a comfortable lifestyle with his wife, Mae (Renee Zellweger) and their three children. Five years later, Braddock is crushed by the Depression; a broken hand has lost him matches, his boxing licence has been revoked and he and his family...
