I saw Cinderella Man at the dollar theater last night.
I'm terrible at writing movie reviews, so I'm just going to give you a disjointed list of bullet point impressions.
But the truth may have been very different:
Baer fought Frankie Campbell (brother of Brooklyn Dodgers Hall Of Famer Adolph Camilli) on August 25, 1930 in San Francisco and knocked him out. Campbell never regained consciousness. After lying on the canvas for nearly an hour, an ambulance finally transported Campbell to a nearby hospital where he eventually died of extensive brain hemorrages. An autopsy revealed that Baer's devastating blows had knocked Campbell's entire brain loose from the connective tissue holding it in place within his cranium. This fatality shocked Baer; according to his son, Max Baer, Jr., he cried and had nightmares over the incident for decades afterwards. He was charged with manslaughter. Although he was eventually acquitted of all charges, the California State Boxing Commission still banned him from any in-ring activity within their state for the next year. He gave purses from succeeding bouts to Campbell's family, but lost four of his next six fights. He fared better when Jack Dempsey took him under his wing, and Baer put Campbell's children through college.And while I've been hearing about the Lewis/Schmeling bouts for most of my life, I had no idea that Baer had some history in the area:
Baer beat the likes of Walter Cobb and Kingfish Levinsky. In 1933, he boxed Max Schmeling (with a Star of David embroidered on his trunks [1], which he swore to wear in every bout thereafter) at Yankee Stadium, dominating the rugged German fighter into the tenth round when the referee stopped the match.Because he defeated Hitler's favorite, and had some Jewish ancestry, he became a hero to the Jewish people.
I saw it awhile ago and I concur, this is a very good movie. Interestingly I mentioned this to a friend who is an avowed Communist and I got the feeling you liked the portrayal of the 30s for somewhat different reasons than we did. For them that was "the good old days."

Posted by: red at August 11, 2005 04:17 PMI loved this movie. The depression scenes were so moving.
Russell Crowe really is the only actor who can (or wants to) play a real hero. He goes for the Gary Cooper parts (Gladiator, Master & Commander) where his charactor is a true blue stand-up guy.
