Handlung
WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesRosemarie DeWitt (Sara Wilson) is the granddaughter of the real Jimmy Braddock ("James J."). She is the daughter of his daughter Rosemarie, who was portrayed by Ariel Waller in this movie.
- PatzerThe receipt that Jimmy Braddock gives at the welfare office is about $50 off from the actual amount that Braddock had borrowed. Russell Crowe pointed this out to the director who decided to 'leave it in to prove that it's just a movie'.
- Zitate
Jim Braddock: You think you're telling me something? Like, what, boxing is dangerous, something like that? You don't think working triple shifts and at night on a scaffold isn't just as likely to get a man killed? What about all those guys who died last week living in cardboard shacks to save on rent money just to feed their family, 'cause guys like you have not quite figured out a way yet to make money off of watching that guy die? But in my profession - and it is my profession - I'm a little more fortunate.
