That was one of the best films with boxing as a background.

Excellent direction and cast. Crowe doesn't seem to maybe know that much about boxing from his recent interview with Rogan, but he did spend months with Angelo Dundee on the set.

The film featuring boxing as a backdrop was among the better ones.

They most likely need to make more movies about? Boxing from in and around that Golden era and way further back in History 'Many people in boxing, are not familiar historically with boxing beyond the 1970's'.

The reason why biographical movies such as 'The Cinderella Man' are interesting? Is because boxing or prize fighting has been interwoven into the fabric of society for centuries. As a sport or activity it has been able to infiltrated many area's of society and people's lives throughout history, by far more in depth than other sports.

The so called mainstream sports, which people class as the most popular spectators sports 'In this modern era of society. Before the World Wars and the pre Industrial Revolution, those sports were completely insignificant in society. Because they are fundamentally leisure activities, games which people played to enjoy their leisure time'.

For the most part of mankind's history, the most significant sports have been Sports under the Athletics domain i.e Track and Field Athletic's predominately and then Boxing 'Because they are measurements of mankind's abilities, and they document are quest through this realm in life. Soccer, Basketball, Tennis, Golf none of those sports operate in this fashion.

Note: In a whole greater scheme of things, how significant in terms of mankind's quest through physical reality. Is the feat of a NBA team winning a Championship? It is great entertainment, in a very similar way a soap opera is entertaining. But it is not really that historically, or scientifically significant compared to the feats achieved in many other sports'. There are feats of achievement in sports that in my opinion exist in two different domains, you have entertainment then you have markers of pure ability.

When Roger Bannister first broke the 4 minute mile, or Jim Hines became the first athlete to break the 10 second barrier over 100m. Those feats of achievement are comparable to Mount Everest first being climbed, or the Saturn V Rocket flying Mankind to the Moon'.

Are bodies physiologically and socio-spiritually are the vehicles that we travel through time in 'The sports which are a measuring specific abilities throughout are exploration through life. On a whole greater scheme of things universally and historically they are more significant'.

A straight forward way to prove this 'Is to hypothetically imagine, that the sophisticated civilized society that we live today is taken apart. And once again mankind is not living separate from nature to the level we are today, in that situation there is only really two things that matter which will support your survival. Can you fight? And how great of a athlete are you? That is it'.

To conclude: Boxing is a sport that Universally and culturally, people have associated this sport with courage 'It is the measurement of courage'. And Historically biopics and stories such as 'The Cinderella Man: 2005. They document and show boxing at a point in history, were the competitors in the sport are showing extremely high levels of courage both inside and outside of the ring.

And I believe that in this modern era of sports 'Many people seemed to not understand fundamental, difference between boxing and the so called mainstream sports. Fundamentally boxing, or prize fighting has never been a leisure activity. It has historically been a tool, which those who show courage could use to survive within society throughout the era's'.

Biographically movies such as 'The Cinderella Man: 2005. They show this, more impressively and on a more in-depth level than many of the movies we see today made about combat sports etc.
