A man's fortitude and responsibility can hold up the sky. At least that's how Cinderella Man makes us feel. I have tried to look at this man from another angle. In fact, he is not a fanatical boxer. In most cases, he is forced by life. His age and society force him to use his own life to fight for life.
Speaking of man's fortitude, Braddock seemed to be close to tears only once. When he walked into the boxing commission management committee, his complex expression of desire for help and soft hat to receive gifts happened to set off the man's fortitude and strength. one side. He has full confidence in himself, he has a charisma that is different from ordinary people, he is sincere, peaceful, and seems very wise. It is not surprising that such a man will eventually become the Hero in the eyes of ordinary people in a society like the United States. Although his life has gone from one peak to another, it seems that there has never been a smooth sailing day, but the difficulties, ups and downs at any time have not knocked him down. When the clerk gave Braddock limited relief money in doubt, we can read the kind of gratitude to the society from Braddock's eyes, so when Mike was injured, he did not have hatred and helplessness towards which system. The roll of relief money he returned did not just show the director's nostalgia for this free country? The feedback to the society and the feedback from the society are mutual. In the end, we still have to rely on our own efforts and stick to our beliefs. Men can nurture their families and give back to the society through their own efforts, instead of cowardly thinking that they are abandoned by society.
Braddock is fundamentally different from Baer, who is a master of boxing. He always maintains a low-key attitude. He is the father of three children and the husband of a beautiful lady. He has his responsibility. This responsibility takes out shoe polish from him and pretends to be himself. From the moment the limb was severed, it runs through the entire film. The conflict with Mike in front of the church completely reflects the two different types of people's attitudes towards poverty. There is no doubt that Braddock maintains an optimistic and cheerful attitude. Fear of poverty and hatred of poverty are not good for the individual. Cowardly people pray for the pastor. The next one cannot enter heaven, it will only bring infinite grief to the living. In the duel with Baer, Braddock almost gave up, but the flash of Mike's wife's sad cemetery crossing gave him the infinite momentum of family responsibilities.
We can't ignore Joey, who seems to be a vampire agent. I admire his forward-looking vision of Braddock and envy the friendship between the two of them in the ordinary. Joey's almost bankruptcy approach, through the dialogue between the two women, highlights the importance of family members for their firm beliefs. Although this is a violent ballet piercing film, I have to think that this is actually a warm and loving film full of love.
Iron Fist is a belief and a responsibility. With this belief and responsibility, men are invincible.
