this movie is by far one of the most amazing and the best boxing dramas i have ever seen since the Rocky movies. cliont eastwood one of my favorite directors directed and produced this four star masterpiece that is bound to make you shed a tear by the time it ends. the plot is simple, hillary swank plays margaret fitzgerald, who is a poor waitress with an interest in boxing. clint eastwood plays frankie, the trainer of  a champion boxer. after frankie is is fired by his champion boxer, frenkie is about to retire when margaret shows up with an urge to box. frankie at first sticks with the whole "i dont train girls speech" but he then looks pass that and trains margaret so that she can fufill her passion for boxing. this film goes over the top of what a normal boxing movie would. clint eastwood made sylvester stallone look like a baby in a diaper. this movie definatelly is a masterpiece. one of the best movies in boxing history. clint eastwood cant be beat in this business. are you taking notes mr. stallone???
