Million Dollar Baby
|
00:00:47 |
Do it! |
00:00:51 |
You got him! You got him! |
00:01:07 |
I only ever met one man |
00:01:10 |
I can't stop that. |
00:01:12 |
Get out of here, you useless tit. |
00:01:14 |
When I met him, he was already the best |
00:01:17 |
Can you stop it? |
00:01:19 |
Started training and managing |
00:01:22 |
No. |
00:01:31 |
Let me have a look at him. |
00:01:33 |
He's fine. He's fine. |
00:01:35 |
He ain't if you don't stop this bleeding. |
00:01:38 |
I'll give you one more round. |
00:01:41 |
- Seconds out. Let's go. |
00:01:45 |
You let him hit you. |
00:01:50 |
Sometimes there's just |
00:01:53 |
Cut's too wide, too close to the bone. |
00:01:57 |
Maybe you got a severed vein... |
00:01:59 |
... or you just can't get the coagulant |
00:02:03 |
- Come on! |
00:02:04 |
There are all kinds of combinations |
00:02:07 |
... down in the different layers of meat... |
00:02:10 |
... and Frankie knew |
00:02:22 |
- That's it! Come on! |
00:02:29 |
Knock him out, Willie! |
00:02:39 |
People love violence. |
00:02:41 |
They'll slow down at a car wreck |
00:02:44 |
Same people claim to love boxing. |
00:02:46 |
They got no idea what it is. |
00:02:49 |
Boxing is about respect. |
00:02:52 |
Getting it for yourself... |
00:02:54 |
... and taking it away from the other guy. |
00:03:01 |
I'll warm up the car. |
00:03:02 |
Mr. Dunn? |
00:03:05 |
I owe you money? |
00:03:06 |
No, sir. |
00:03:08 |
I know your mama? |
00:03:09 |
Don't rightly know, sir. |
00:03:12 |
- Then what is it you want? |
00:03:14 |
I won my fight too. Maggie Fitzgerald. |
00:03:17 |
Well, Maggie Fitzgerald, what's up? |
00:03:20 |
- Did you happen to see it? |
00:03:22 |
I did pretty good. |
00:03:24 |
Thought you might be interested |
00:03:27 |
I don't train girls. |
00:03:29 |
Maybe you should. People see me fight |
00:03:33 |
Girlie, tough ain't enough. |
00:03:49 |
It's a mistake. |
00:03:57 |
Car should be able to back up, Frankie. |
00:03:59 |
Just push, will you? |
00:04:02 |
- What did Hogan want? |
00:04:06 |
About time. |
00:04:07 |
I turned him down flat. |
00:04:09 |
Two or three more fights, you'll be ready. |
00:04:17 |
Been two or three more fights |
00:04:20 |
Look, Willie, |
00:04:23 |
You lose it, |
00:04:26 |
Now, two or three more fights |
00:04:30 |
Whatever you say, Frankie. |
00:04:33 |
Frankie liked to say that boxing |
00:04:37 |
... that everything in boxing is backwards. |
00:04:42 |
Sometimes... |
00:04:43 |
... best way to deliver a punch |
00:04:56 |
Well, do your best, Lord... |
00:04:59 |
...protect Katy. |
00:05:02 |
Annie too. |
00:05:04 |
Other than that... |
00:05:06 |
...you know what I want, |
00:05:11 |
But step back too far, |
00:05:31 |
- Bye. |
00:05:34 |
Father, that was a great sermon. |
00:05:38 |
What's confusing you this week? |
00:05:39 |
Oh, it's the same old |
00:05:42 |
Frankie, most people figure out |
00:05:45 |
Is it sort of like Snap, Crackle and Pop |
00:05:51 |
You're standing outside my church |
00:05:55 |
The only reason you come to Mass |
00:05:57 |
- It won't happen this morning. |
00:06:00 |
- No, you aren't. |
00:06:01 |
Then here's your answer: |
00:06:05 |
Anything else? Because I'm busy. |
00:06:06 |
- What about the Holy Ghost? |
00:06:09 |
- And Jesus? |
00:06:12 |
What is he then? |
00:06:14 |
There are no demigods, |
00:06:23 |
- Did you write your daughter? |
00:06:25 |
Now you're lying to a priest. |
00:06:27 |
You know what? Take a day off, |
00:06:41 |
Some people would say the most important |
00:06:46 |
Frankie would say, "Show me a fighter |
00:06:49 |
... and I'll show you a man |
00:07:01 |
Think I only ever met one fighter |
00:07:06 |
My name's Dangerous Dillard |
00:07:09 |
...out of Broward County, Texas! |
00:07:14 |
Danger showed up |
00:07:18 |
He'd come visiting L.A. With Ervel, |
00:07:23 |
Apparently Ervel got lost |
00:07:29 |
Danger looked for him for about a week |
00:07:35 |
Hey, you know, I gots nothing |
00:07:42 |
Well, that's nice to hear. |
00:07:44 |
Yeah, lots of people where |
00:07:48 |
...but my mama taught me |
00:07:52 |
...niggers or not. |
00:07:54 |
You got a nice mama. |
00:07:57 |
Just one of those questions you ask... |
00:07:59 |
... but Danger wanted to give it |
00:08:01 |
Well, sir, I'd likes to become |
00:08:07 |
And I challenge the Motor City Cobra... |
00:08:11 |
...Thomas "Hit Man" Hearns... |
00:08:13 |
...to fight me for the welterweight |
00:08:17 |
Yo, Flip, shut up, man! |
00:08:20 |
You gotta have at least one fight |
00:08:23 |
Hey, I'll fight any man, anytime! |
00:08:25 |
Hey, you a bad man, huh? |
00:08:27 |
Get in the ring. Go a round with me. |
00:08:30 |
- Shawrelle. |
00:08:33 |
Leave him alone. |
00:08:36 |
Danger, you go on back to training. |
00:08:39 |
Will do, Mr. Scrap. |
00:08:44 |
Them's some nice tights, Danger. |
00:08:48 |
I'll give you that ass-whupping later, |
00:08:50 |
Hey, bro, those pants look |
00:08:53 |
Give his mama back her tights. |
00:08:54 |
Shawrelle Berry had a left hook |
00:08:59 |
... but he had a heart |
00:09:02 |
Frankie bought the Hit Pit |
00:09:06 |
Bobby wanted to move to Florida, |
00:09:10 |
Bobby died while he was packing. |
00:09:13 |
And Frankie found out |
00:09:17 |
I thought I told you I didn't want |
00:09:20 |
He ain't hurting nothing, Frankie. |
00:09:22 |
Well, he's hurting me. |
00:09:24 |
Breaking my heart, watching him punch |
00:09:29 |
And how many times have I gotta tell you |
00:09:32 |
Why can't you buy the cheap stuff? |
00:09:36 |
It smells better, Frankie. |
00:09:38 |
Bleach smells like bleach. |
00:09:49 |
- Hey, Scrap. |
00:09:55 |
Hey, nice fight last night. |
00:10:01 |
Nice fight. |
00:10:06 |
- Big Willie. |
00:10:11 |
- Nice fight. |
00:10:13 |
People are talking. |
00:10:30 |
What the hell kind of language is that? |
00:10:34 |
What do you want? |
00:10:35 |
I thought you might like to know |
00:10:39 |
...not talking to another manager. |
00:10:42 |
Not talking to another manager? |
00:10:44 |
And not just any manager. |
00:10:47 |
Mickey Mack. |
00:10:50 |
You came in here to tell me that Big Willie |
00:10:55 |
Not a word. Neither one of them. |
00:10:58 |
I'm trying to read here. |
00:11:01 |
Well, if you think that's more important. |
00:11:05 |
Who's your new girl? |
00:11:08 |
What? |
00:11:21 |
Jesus Christ. |
00:11:22 |
Better hurry up. |
00:11:24 |
She keeps hitting it like that, |
00:11:35 |
You're wasting your time. |
00:11:38 |
Thought you might change your mind. |
00:11:40 |
Dozens of trainers train girls. |
00:11:44 |
Don't hardly need a dozen, boss. |
00:11:47 |
Don't call me boss, now. I'm not your boss, |
00:11:50 |
- Willie, you ready to work? |
00:11:54 |
If I stop calling you boss, |
00:11:57 |
No. |
00:11:59 |
Then I might as well keep calling you it. |
00:12:02 |
She came from southwestern Missouri... |
00:12:05 |
... the hills outside the scratch-ass |
00:12:10 |
... set in the cedars and oak trees |
00:12:15 |
She grew up knowing one thing: |
00:12:33 |
It's for my dog. |
00:12:34 |
She'd come 1800 miles, |
00:12:58 |
Working the bag, boss. |
00:13:00 |
I'm not your boss. |
00:13:18 |
Give her her money back. |
00:13:21 |
You sure? |
00:13:23 |
- How much did she pay? |
00:13:27 |
- Jesus Christ. |
00:13:29 |
No, don't be a smartass now, will you? |
00:13:32 |
Woman thinks I'll throw away |
00:13:35 |
...just to get rid of her, |
00:13:37 |
- But just don't encourage her, understand? |
00:13:40 |
And what's Danger doing out there? |
00:13:49 |
Looks like a bottle of water. |
00:13:51 |
He paid his dues? |
00:13:54 |
Dues? Boy can't afford pants. |
00:13:58 |
Get out of my office. |
00:14:10 |
Fuck me. |
00:14:58 |
Can't think of it as a bag. |
00:15:04 |
I'm not a trainer, |
00:15:07 |
Appreciate any help I can get. |
00:15:12 |
What you wanna do is, |
00:15:15 |
And he's constantly moving. |
00:15:16 |
He's moving towards you, around you, |
00:15:21 |
Don't hit him when he's coming towards you |
00:15:26 |
...he's gonna smother your punches |
00:15:29 |
So you watch him real carefully. |
00:15:31 |
Keep rotating. |
00:15:33 |
And keep one shoulder back so you're |
00:15:37 |
Right? Go ahead, now. Good, good. |
00:15:43 |
Good, good. Keep that chin tucked in. |
00:15:47 |
Come on around. |
00:15:50 |
- Good, good, good. |
00:15:52 |
Yeah. Give it a few shots. |
00:15:56 |
Tuck that chin in, now. |
00:16:00 |
Yeah, that's good. That's good. |
00:16:02 |
Now, you get this down, |
00:16:09 |
You do have a speed bag. |
00:16:22 |
I'll just borrow it till I can buy my own. |
00:16:24 |
All right, you go on home now. |
00:16:26 |
- I'll walk out with you? |
00:16:29 |
- Wanna see? |
00:16:40 |
It's nice. |
00:16:44 |
Would it bother you |
00:16:48 |
No, just pull the door closed |
00:16:54 |
Thank you. |
00:17:11 |
If there's magic in boxing... |
00:17:14 |
... it's the magic of fighting battles |
00:17:17 |
... beyond cracked ribs, ruptured kidneys |
00:17:33 |
It's the magic of risking everything |
00:17:48 |
Okay, okay, fellas, watch the footwork. |
00:17:50 |
Hey, that's it. That's it. |
00:17:53 |
Hands up. |
00:17:55 |
Jab, jab, jab. |
00:18:11 |
Hey, Flip. |
00:18:13 |
Hey, Flippy, come here, man. |
00:18:15 |
I think I found somebody you can beat. |
00:18:21 |
I don't fights women. |
00:18:24 |
Why not, bro? It's perfect, bro, |
00:18:27 |
Because she... |
00:18:29 |
...and then you could kiss to him. |
00:18:31 |
Then you fight to him one more time. |
00:18:33 |
That's beautiful, man. That's like poetry. |
00:18:36 |
- It's like poetry. |
00:18:39 |
- Thanks, bro. |
00:18:41 |
Flip, I think you right. Look at her little |
00:18:46 |
Man, that's barely even a mouthful. |
00:18:49 |
Saw your last fight, Shawrelle. |
00:18:51 |
Spent so much time face down, |
00:18:58 |
Canvas has titties. |
00:19:11 |
Just humping the canvas. |
00:19:16 |
Come on, bro. The floor having titties? |
00:19:20 |
Shut up, man. |
00:19:24 |
Man, hold the bag, stupid. |
00:19:27 |
Some titties right there, man. |
00:19:30 |
Yo, when they start making those tights |
00:19:34 |
Punk. |
00:19:36 |
All right, that's enough. |
00:19:42 |
- I'll give you a rubdown. |
00:19:45 |
Middle one's got a piano lesson. |
00:19:48 |
- Something wrong with Gracie's car? |
00:19:51 |
Wants the old one back, |
00:19:55 |
Maybe I should talk to the dealer. |
00:19:58 |
I'd appreciate that. |
00:20:00 |
Okay. |
00:20:01 |
- Thanks. |
00:20:12 |
The man's a rubdown whore. |
00:20:16 |
You ever do any work around here? |
00:20:19 |
Not my job I'd worry about, if I was you. |
00:20:25 |
Little girl seems to be coming along. |
00:20:28 |
Yeah. It's almost like |
00:20:33 |
She might just be a natural. |
00:20:39 |
She's got my speed bag, |
00:20:43 |
I wonder how the hell she got that. |
00:20:45 |
I wonder. |
00:20:57 |
I'm gonna need that speed bag back. |
00:20:59 |
- This bag? |
00:21:02 |
And if you're hitting it, |
00:21:05 |
Is that such a bad thing, boss? |
00:21:06 |
Yes. Yes, it is. |
00:21:09 |
Every time you touch it, |
00:21:12 |
- I gotta agree, I am embarrassing myself. |
00:21:16 |
Well, I can't just lend it |
00:21:19 |
I understand. |
00:21:22 |
Yeah. |
00:21:26 |
Look, you seem like a nice girl. |
00:21:28 |
- Can I give you some advice? |
00:21:31 |
You'll find a trainer in this gym |
00:21:34 |
...that's gonna wanna train a girl. |
00:21:36 |
It's the latest freak show out there. |
00:21:39 |
The trouble is, they're gonna be |
00:21:41 |
...because you're too old. |
00:21:44 |
I don't feel that old. |
00:21:46 |
Well, neither do I, but you don't see me |
00:21:50 |
Takes about four years to train a fighter. |
00:21:54 |
How old are you? |
00:21:56 |
- Thirty-one until my next birthday. |
00:21:59 |
Thirty-one. |
00:22:02 |
You wouldn't start training to be |
00:22:05 |
Already been working it |
00:22:07 |
And you can't hit a speed bag? |
00:22:11 |
Never had any, boss. |
00:22:14 |
Well, I hate to say it, but it shows. |
00:22:16 |
Somebody's gotta be honest with you. |
00:22:19 |
I hate to be the one to tell you the truth. |
00:22:22 |
Yeah. |
00:22:24 |
Well, sorry for using your bag, Mr. Dunn. |
00:22:31 |
- You're not gonna cry now, are you? |
00:22:35 |
Yeah. |
00:22:38 |
Here. |
00:22:41 |
- Keep the goddamn thing. |
00:22:43 |
No, take the bag. |
00:22:46 |
I haven't seen it in 20 years anyway. |
00:22:48 |
I've had three since then. |
00:22:53 |
- I'll just borrow it till I buy my own. |
00:22:57 |
Just don't lose it. |
00:23:07 |
Yeah, I know, Hogan... |
00:23:09 |
...your guy's the champ, |
00:23:12 |
...but if I don't see 40 percent... |
00:23:15 |
Look, you call me back when it's 60-40 |
00:23:29 |
- Hey, Willie. |
00:23:31 |
Something wrong? |
00:23:33 |
I'm sorry to come by your house like this. |
00:23:37 |
Oh, you're not people, Willie. |
00:23:40 |
I wanted to thank you |
00:23:43 |
Oh, well, you don't have to thank me. |
00:23:45 |
Paying an extra thousand dollars |
00:23:50 |
Gracie cried when she saw it. |
00:23:52 |
Really? |
00:23:54 |
I also needed to talk with you |
00:23:57 |
Oh, yeah, well, I just got off the phone |
00:24:01 |
Everything but the split. |
00:24:03 |
I gotta leave you, Frankie. |
00:24:07 |
What? |
00:24:12 |
Willie, the title's just two fights away. |
00:24:15 |
It ain't that, it's... |
00:24:20 |
If I win, I gotta make |
00:24:23 |
I need somebody in the action |
00:24:27 |
And I gotta make the change |
00:24:30 |
Only way this guy say he'd take me |
00:24:34 |
So I get you the title fight, |
00:24:38 |
Only way he'd do it. |
00:24:40 |
I'm sorry, Frankie. I know how long |
00:24:44 |
I wish it could've been with me. |
00:24:47 |
Mickey Mack's a businessman. |
00:24:52 |
You already taught me |
00:25:03 |
There's some things people |
00:25:17 |
And I challenge the Motor City Cobra, |
00:25:22 |
...to fight me for the welterweight |
00:25:26 |
Danger, I'm wearing |
00:25:30 |
Just working on my footwork, Mr. Scrap. |
00:25:34 |
Danger, you throw a punch |
00:25:42 |
Danger, while you thinking about |
00:25:47 |
I'm thinking how I'm gonna hit it hard |
00:25:56 |
No one had the heart to tell Danger |
00:26:10 |
I heard about Willie. |
00:26:12 |
That's cold. That's dead cold. |
00:26:15 |
Of course, it wouldn't be so bad |
00:26:18 |
Yeah, well, at least I can see |
00:26:22 |
Didn't do you |
00:26:25 |
Well, I've got the gym. |
00:26:27 |
Don't need to be training fighters |
00:26:32 |
Willie tell you why? |
00:26:34 |
It was Mickey. |
00:26:37 |
Oh, it ain't about connections. |
00:26:40 |
Well, I found him, |
00:26:43 |
How's that for not believing in him? |
00:26:45 |
You could've got him a title fight |
00:26:49 |
I'm amazed he stayed around this long. |
00:26:51 |
Well, getting there and taking home |
00:26:54 |
What was I supposed to do, |
00:26:58 |
Not protect him? |
00:26:59 |
Oh, you were protecting him |
00:27:02 |
- Yeah. |
00:27:05 |
Well, what about you, Scrap? |
00:27:09 |
You were a hell of a fighter, |
00:27:12 |
He get you a title fight, |
00:27:15 |
...banging your head against other |
00:27:19 |
I had my shot. |
00:27:21 |
I went out swinging, |
00:27:24 |
Yeah, well, I remember. |
00:27:25 |
And excuse me if I didn't want my fighter |
00:27:29 |
...cleaning up other people's spit. |
00:27:33 |
Right, you're the smart one. |
00:27:37 |
It's Gaelic. |
00:27:39 |
Well, you just protected yourself |
00:27:42 |
How do you say that in Gaelic? |
00:28:53 |
Sorry. |
00:29:02 |
Thanks. |
00:29:03 |
The action continues as the champ |
00:29:08 |
... and commanding him |
00:29:10 |
Up against the ropes, |
00:29:13 |
Boxing is an unnatural act. |
00:29:17 |
Because everything in it is backwards. |
00:29:22 |
You wanna move to the left... |
00:29:24 |
... you don't step left, |
00:29:28 |
To move right, you use your left toe. |
00:29:32 |
Instead of running from the pain, |
00:29:36 |
... you step into it. |
00:29:39 |
But Big Willie comes back. Oh, my God, |
00:29:43 |
And the champ is down. |
00:29:46 |
Ladies and gentleman, |
00:29:48 |
And Big Willie Jones |
00:29:52 |
It's unbelievable how |
00:29:56 |
... but there you have it, folks, |
00:30:00 |
Everything in boxing is backwards. |
00:30:19 |
Want a cheeseburger? |
00:30:21 |
- You bought me a cheeseburger? |
00:30:23 |
I never see you buy anybody |
00:30:25 |
Well, I couldn't eat it, and I ordered it. |
00:30:28 |
Well, I guess the planet |
00:30:33 |
- You watch the fight? |
00:30:37 |
Willie did good. |
00:30:40 |
That's what you've got to say? |
00:30:42 |
Well, he won, didn't he? He did good. |
00:30:45 |
I see you been working on yourself, |
00:30:50 |
You watch it? |
00:30:52 |
Yeah, I got HBO. |
00:30:55 |
Now, how can you afford HBO? |
00:30:57 |
How long have I been telling you |
00:31:01 |
Ever since I fought |
00:31:04 |
...at the Stadium Club |
00:31:07 |
- That true? |
00:31:09 |
Manager ran off |
00:31:13 |
Don't you remember nothing? |
00:31:15 |
Well, I remember walking halfway |
00:31:19 |
I remember you leaving me with my dick |
00:31:23 |
Yeah, well, I got a ride. The guy took off |
00:31:27 |
I had to walk back two miles. |
00:31:30 |
Your conscience got the better of you, |
00:31:36 |
What the hell's that? |
00:31:39 |
It's her birthday. |
00:32:03 |
You're not breathing right. |
00:32:07 |
So it's your birthday, huh? |
00:32:09 |
How old does that make you? |
00:32:12 |
I'm 32, Mr. Dunn. |
00:32:15 |
I'm celebrating that I spent another year |
00:32:18 |
...which is what I been doing since 13. |
00:32:21 |
And according to you, I'll be 37 |
00:32:26 |
...which after working this speed bag |
00:32:29 |
...I now realize may be God's simple truth. |
00:32:31 |
Other truth is, my brother's in prison... |
00:32:33 |
...my sister cheats on welfare by pretending |
00:32:37 |
...my daddy's dead, |
00:32:40 |
If I was thinking straight, |
00:32:43 |
...find a used trailer, |
00:32:48 |
The problem is, this is the only thing |
00:32:52 |
If I'm too old for this, then I got nothing. |
00:32:56 |
That enough truth to suit you? |
00:33:00 |
This your speed bag? |
00:33:01 |
Put yours behind the counter. |
00:33:07 |
Okay, just hold it. Hold it. |
00:33:10 |
I'll show you a few things, |
00:33:13 |
No, sorry. |
00:33:15 |
- You're in a position to negotiate? |
00:33:18 |
Because I know if you train me right, |
00:33:23 |
I seen you looking at me. |
00:33:25 |
- Yeah, out of pity. |
00:33:28 |
Don't you say that if it ain't true. |
00:33:32 |
I want a trainer. |
00:33:34 |
I don't want charity, |
00:33:41 |
If you're not interested, |
00:33:47 |
Stop, stop, stop. |
00:33:49 |
Goddamn it, stop. |
00:33:57 |
Okay. |
00:33:59 |
If I'm gonna take you on... |
00:34:00 |
- You won't never regret it. |
00:34:04 |
- Lf I take you on... |
00:34:07 |
God, this is a mistake already. |
00:34:11 |
I'm listening, boss. |
00:34:14 |
If I take you on, you don't say anything, |
00:34:19 |
You don't ask why, you don't say |
00:34:23 |
And I'm gonna try to forget the fact |
00:34:26 |
That's all I ask. |
00:34:28 |
And don't come crying to me |
00:34:31 |
- Alrighty. |
00:34:33 |
No, not quite. |
00:34:35 |
I'm gonna teach you how to fight... |
00:34:37 |
...then we'll get you a manager, |
00:34:40 |
- I hate to argue with you, but... |
00:34:44 |
I teach you all you need to know, |
00:34:48 |
I don't care. You get your teeth |
00:34:51 |
I don't wanna hear about it. |
00:34:55 |
It's the only way I'll do it. |
00:35:04 |
All right. |
00:35:07 |
Now, one of the things I've noticed around |
00:35:12 |
You stand there just flat-footed. |
00:35:15 |
That's one of the best things |
00:35:18 |
So here's what you do. |
00:35:21 |
You get yourself... |
00:35:24 |
Get in an athletic position. |
00:35:29 |
- Move them how, boss? |
00:35:34 |
- Stop. |
00:35:36 |
Okay, you did two things wrong. |
00:35:39 |
One is you asked a question, |
00:35:42 |
Now, what I want you to do, |
00:35:46 |
...it's how good you hit it. So watch me. |
00:35:50 |
You can count with me if you want. |
00:35:52 |
It's just count. On a one-count, |
00:35:55 |
- Can you show me that again? |
00:35:57 |
Just say "one," please. |
00:36:00 |
- One. |
00:36:01 |
- One. Okay. |
00:36:03 |
Yeah, just say "one." That's good. |
00:36:07 |
Then I move over to my right foot. You'll |
00:36:12 |
Then I hit it with my back of my hand, sort |
00:36:17 |
Then I come over, and I shift to my left foot, |
00:36:22 |
And ice pick maneuver again. |
00:36:25 |
And I come over on my right foot |
00:36:30 |
Don't watch anything but my feet. |
00:36:44 |
Just do it like that. Just keep practicing. |
00:37:18 |
You show them how to stand, |
00:37:30 |
To make a fighter, |
00:37:34 |
Rest when you're dead. |
00:37:35 |
Come here. |
00:37:41 |
You can't just tell them |
00:37:44 |
... you gotta make them forget it |
00:37:51 |
Make them so tired |
00:37:54 |
Only hear your voice, |
00:37:58 |
Move your feet. |
00:38:00 |
Move your feet around. Let's see you go. |
00:38:16 |
Show them how to keep their balance |
00:38:20 |
Not so low. Look at me. |
00:38:28 |
How to generate momentum |
00:38:32 |
And how to flex your knees |
00:38:42 |
How to fight backing up, so that the |
00:38:46 |
Then you gotta show them |
00:38:49 |
Over and over and over... |
00:38:51 |
... till they think they were born that way. |
00:38:56 |
Shift. |
00:38:57 |
Shift away. |
00:39:00 |
Okay. That's enough for today. |
00:39:04 |
Good work. Good girl. |
00:39:08 |
You think I ready for a fight, boss? |
00:39:34 |
Hey. Hey, come here. |
00:39:40 |
You're not breathing. |
00:39:43 |
Hate to disagree with you. |
00:39:45 |
Every time you get under pressure, |
00:39:48 |
- Now, stop doing that. |
00:39:52 |
But other than that, |
00:39:54 |
- I mean, for a girl. |
00:40:01 |
Think I might be ready |
00:40:03 |
Well, we'll get a manager, |
00:40:07 |
I'd like to, |
00:40:17 |
- Got any family, boss? |
00:40:22 |
You been spending all this time with me, |
00:40:26 |
No. |
00:40:29 |
Well, I've got a daughter, Katy. |
00:40:33 |
That's family. |
00:40:35 |
We're not exactly close. |
00:40:37 |
How much she weigh? |
00:40:40 |
What? |
00:40:41 |
Trouble in my family |
00:40:47 |
Yeah. |
00:40:49 |
Not very big. |
00:40:51 |
Used to be real athletic. |
00:41:01 |
So, what do you think? |
00:41:05 |
I ready for a fight? |
00:41:12 |
Hey, Sally. |
00:41:16 |
Come here for a minute, will you? |
00:41:19 |
Frankie, I need to see you |
00:41:23 |
- Can I see you a minute? |
00:41:26 |
Has a couple of Golden Glove boys. |
00:41:30 |
I'm looking for a good one. |
00:41:33 |
Well, see, there you go. |
00:41:38 |
Nice working with you, girlie. |
00:41:44 |
- What'd you want? |
00:41:47 |
I ain't lying, I've been watching you work. |
00:41:51 |
Thank you. |
00:41:55 |
So you wanna give this a try? |
00:42:00 |
- Yeah, sure. |
00:42:04 |
Because I think you're ready for a fight. |
00:42:18 |
Break. |
00:42:21 |
What am I doing wrong, Sally? |
00:42:24 |
You're doing great. |
00:42:27 |
- I ain't doing great, I'm losing. |
00:42:32 |
You okay, honey? Can you see okay? |
00:42:36 |
- Come on. |
00:42:38 |
Come on, let's do this! |
00:42:45 |
That's it! |
00:42:54 |
Nice night, eh? |
00:42:55 |
Jesus Christ. |
00:42:58 |
That's Lonnie Washington's girl. |
00:43:00 |
Hell of a fighter. |
00:43:02 |
11-0. |
00:43:04 |
Your left. Keep your left up. |
00:43:11 |
Lonnie's got a lot of good fighters. |
00:43:13 |
He's got Joey Adagio, |
00:43:17 |
Yeah. |
00:43:19 |
Your left, damn it. |
00:43:21 |
Wouldn't have been my choice for |
00:43:26 |
- He must think she can take her. |
00:43:29 |
Your left. Keep your left up. |
00:43:32 |
You think she can hear you |
00:43:42 |
Of course, if Maggie loses, |
00:43:46 |
Might even help him. |
00:43:48 |
Lonnie's girl gets another win... |
00:43:50 |
...Lonnie might let Sally's lightweight |
00:43:55 |
Sally's trying to set a fight with Adagio? |
00:43:58 |
Hey, what do I know? |
00:43:59 |
I just come because I enjoy the fights. |
00:44:02 |
Mother of God. |
00:44:06 |
Okay, break. |
00:44:07 |
Hey. Come here, come here. |
00:44:10 |
Hey. Get over here. |
00:44:11 |
You're dropping your left hand. |
00:44:14 |
Hey, Frankie, |
00:44:17 |
You're doing a hell of a job. |
00:44:21 |
Dunn. |
00:44:23 |
- What are you doing? |
00:44:26 |
- Is this your fighter? |
00:44:29 |
It ain't fitting real well, Sally. |
00:44:31 |
Fine, you take her. |
00:44:35 |
- Somebody tell me what's going on. |
00:44:39 |
You telling me this is your fighter? |
00:44:44 |
Yeah, this is my fighter. |
00:44:46 |
Then you got 10 seconds. |
00:44:48 |
I keep holding my left up, |
00:44:52 |
- Well, let it drop. |
00:44:54 |
She thinks she knows you. |
00:44:55 |
Every time you drop it, |
00:44:58 |
So you just wait for her, see? |
00:45:02 |
- When she cocks that right hand... You hear? |
00:45:05 |
When she does, step to the side |
00:45:08 |
- Got one? |
00:45:10 |
- Okay. |
00:45:13 |
- Go give it to her. |
00:45:16 |
How to protect itself. |
00:45:18 |
A neck can only twist so far. |
00:45:20 |
Twist it just a hair more, |
00:45:24 |
"Hey, I'll take it from here because you |
00:45:28 |
Neutral corner. |
00:45:31 |
- See the way she did that? |
00:45:33 |
Sugar Ray would do that. |
00:45:36 |
"Lie down, now, rest, and we'll talk |
00:45:42 |
It's called the knockout mechanism. |
00:45:45 |
Don't get all carried away, now. |
00:45:48 |
Thanks, boss. |
00:45:51 |
You... You forgot the rule. |
00:45:53 |
- Now, what is the rule? |
00:45:56 |
It's to protect yourself at all times. |
00:45:59 |
Now, what is the rule? |
00:46:01 |
- Protect myself at all times. |
00:46:05 |
You gave me away. |
00:46:09 |
It wasn't. |
00:46:11 |
It's okay. |
00:46:13 |
- I'll work on my left, boss. |
00:46:18 |
Other than that, how'd I do? |
00:46:20 |
Fine. You did fine. |
00:46:24 |
You gonna leave me again? |
00:46:28 |
Never. |
00:46:30 |
That place you work, do they have |
00:46:34 |
- Sure. |
00:46:37 |
Oh, big can, yay size. |
00:46:43 |
- I want you to take the weekend off. |
00:46:48 |
- You gonna argue with me? |
00:46:52 |
Well, good. |
00:46:54 |
All fighters are pigheaded |
00:46:57 |
Some part of them always thinks |
00:47:01 |
Can you spare a few minutes |
00:47:06 |
Truth is, even if they're wrong... |
00:47:11 |
... even if that one thing |
00:47:14 |
... if you can beat that last bit out of them, |
00:47:19 |
- Thought I said I'd see you Monday. |
00:47:23 |
That was last night. |
00:47:24 |
You said not to argue with you. |
00:47:38 |
Damn woman won't do a thing I tell her. |
00:47:41 |
You want my advice? |
00:47:43 |
What? |
00:47:46 |
Where are your shoes? |
00:47:48 |
I'm airing out my feet. |
00:47:52 |
You got big holes in your socks. |
00:47:55 |
Oh, they're not that big. |
00:47:59 |
Didn't I give you money |
00:48:03 |
These are my sleeping socks. |
00:48:06 |
My feet like a little air at night. |
00:48:09 |
How come you're wearing them |
00:48:12 |
Because my daytime socks |
00:48:17 |
Well, if I give you some more money, |
00:48:23 |
Please? |
00:48:27 |
Well, I'd be tempted, |
00:48:31 |
Might find its way to the track. |
00:48:49 |
It's over. It's over. |
00:49:07 |
Didn't take Maggie long |
00:49:21 |
I got the breathing thing down. |
00:49:23 |
No, you ain't breathing because you're |
00:49:27 |
- Thought that was the point. |
00:49:31 |
Can't get good if you keep |
00:49:34 |
How am I gonna get you fights? |
00:49:38 |
Nobody wants to see |
00:49:40 |
Why am I still doing |
00:49:43 |
Because you haven't got the lungs |
00:49:46 |
I do if I keep knocking them out |
00:49:53 |
Frankie made her fight |
00:49:56 |
... just to let her know who was boss. |
00:50:03 |
Three, four, five... |
00:50:06 |
...six, seven... |
00:50:08 |
Sorry, boss. |
00:50:10 |
Maggie left no doubt about it. |
00:50:21 |
All right, let's do it. |
00:50:25 |
Her first six-rounder |
00:50:44 |
Get up! |
00:50:46 |
To your corner. |
00:50:48 |
- Three, four, five... |
00:50:51 |
...six, seven... |
00:50:53 |
...eight, nine, ten. It's over. |
00:50:58 |
Maggie didn't knock her out |
00:51:02 |
After that, no manager wanted |
00:51:11 |
Frankie had to go into his pocket |
00:51:14 |
... sweetening the purse |
00:51:30 |
That only worked for so long. |
00:51:33 |
Then Frankie did something |
00:51:36 |
He took a chance. |
00:51:40 |
Box. |
00:51:46 |
He moved her up in class. |
00:51:48 |
That could've been a mistake. |
00:52:04 |
Watch the right! |
00:52:08 |
Watch it. Watch it. |
00:52:17 |
Break, break. Step back. Break. Time. |
00:52:29 |
Damn, damn, damn. |
00:52:34 |
Give us two seconds, will you? |
00:52:36 |
- Okay. |
00:52:39 |
- Your nose is broke. |
00:52:41 |
- Fix it. |
00:52:43 |
- You can fix it. |
00:52:46 |
I've seen what you can do. Fix it. |
00:52:48 |
I can snap it back into place, |
00:52:51 |
The ring doctor's gonna call it. |
00:52:53 |
Please, Frankie, if you |
00:52:57 |
Bite down on this. |
00:53:17 |
- Inhale. |
00:53:19 |
- Inhale. |
00:53:21 |
Breathe in. |
00:53:34 |
- Okay, huh? |
00:53:37 |
All right, you got 20 seconds |
00:53:40 |
...and it's gonna spray |
00:53:42 |
Twenty seconds, that's all you've got. |
00:53:45 |
Now get going. |
00:53:59 |
Go to your corner. |
00:54:02 |
Three, four, five... |
00:54:05 |
- Come on, breathe. Breathe. |
00:54:09 |
...nine, ten. |
00:54:15 |
Mo cuishle. |
00:54:22 |
- All right! |
00:54:25 |
Right. |
00:54:31 |
What you reading? |
00:54:33 |
What's she saying? |
00:54:35 |
Wants to know what you're reading. |
00:54:38 |
It's Yeats. Keep your head back. |
00:54:42 |
Why don't you talk |
00:54:44 |
Show her what a treat that is. |
00:54:47 |
When the hell they gonna get to her? |
00:54:49 |
I'm okay, Frankie. |
00:54:52 |
- What'd you learn tonight? |
00:54:55 |
- What's the rule? |
00:54:58 |
- Margaret Fitzgerald? |
00:55:05 |
I'll be right here. |
00:55:19 |
- How you doing? |
00:55:21 |
- Yeah, you. |
00:55:28 |
Broken nose don't hurt that much. |
00:55:31 |
Why are you telling me that? |
00:55:35 |
No reason. |
00:55:37 |
But some wounds are too deep |
00:55:41 |
And no matter how hard you work at it, |
00:55:46 |
- Did you write your daughter? |
00:55:51 |
I've no idea why you come to church. |
00:56:25 |
After her 12th straight knockout, |
00:56:32 |
The first was to fight |
00:56:35 |
... for the WBA welterweight title. |
00:56:39 |
Billie "The Blue Bear." |
00:56:41 |
Billie was a former prostitute |
00:56:45 |
Had a reputation for being |
00:57:07 |
Didn't seem to matter to her... |
00:57:09 |
... that something like that |
00:57:13 |
And the crowds loved her. |
00:57:18 |
He turned it down |
00:57:21 |
The next was to fight |
00:57:23 |
- ... a Jamaican girl Billie just beat. |
00:57:27 |
Not interested. |
00:57:32 |
He turned that down too. |
00:57:37 |
That's a lot of money, boss. |
00:57:39 |
Yeah, you're making money. |
00:57:43 |
It's a title match, right? |
00:57:45 |
Are you British? |
00:57:48 |
She's got nothing to lose, |
00:57:52 |
Might still be a good fight. |
00:57:55 |
Yeah, I just... I just brought you up |
00:57:59 |
Too good to fight these contenders, |
00:58:02 |
Didn't notice I was fighting |
00:58:06 |
Well, you can get yourself |
00:58:10 |
In fact, if you'd learn |
00:58:13 |
...I wouldn't have |
00:58:19 |
My face is out there so much it's a miracle |
00:58:53 |
No, you can't work here |
00:58:56 |
I made us a reservation. |
00:58:59 |
You might wanna shower. |
00:59:23 |
Here you go. |
00:59:25 |
Here you go. |
00:59:27 |
What's this? |
00:59:29 |
Well, it ain't no big secret |
00:59:33 |
Go on and blow. |
00:59:39 |
Thank you. |
00:59:45 |
Thirty-three ain't so old. |
00:59:48 |
I was still fighting at 39. |
00:59:53 |
Fought for 23 years. |
00:59:59 |
How's it going, Scrap? |
01:00:01 |
Doing good, Mickey. |
01:00:03 |
Doing good. |
01:00:07 |
- What'll you have? |
01:00:15 |
You two not speaking? |
01:00:17 |
Don't hardly know him. |
01:00:25 |
I met Frankie right after |
01:00:30 |
He was picking up cut work. |
01:00:33 |
He used to patch me up |
01:00:38 |
Good man to have in your corner. |
01:00:41 |
Yes, he is. |
01:00:45 |
He stayed with me |
01:00:49 |
My manager was off |
01:00:53 |
...and it was just Frankie and me. |
01:00:58 |
I was taking a hellacious beating. |
01:01:02 |
Everybody's got a particular number |
01:01:07 |
Nobody tells you what that number is. |
01:01:10 |
Mine was 109. |
01:01:14 |
I just didn't want to admit it. |
01:01:18 |
Fourth round, this... |
01:01:21 |
...cut opens up. |
01:01:23 |
Blood starts pouring into my eye. |
01:01:27 |
They should've stopped the fight, but, |
01:01:32 |
Blood was what I was there for. |
01:01:35 |
Round after round, I kept getting |
01:01:39 |
He's talking about |
01:01:41 |
...but he ain't my manager, |
01:01:45 |
Round after round... |
01:01:48 |
...he's arguing with me. |
01:01:51 |
And I'm almost laughing because, hell, |
01:01:56 |
I go 15 rounds... |
01:01:59 |
...Iose by decision. |
01:02:02 |
Next morning, I lose the eye. |
01:02:07 |
In 23 years, he's never said |
01:02:11 |
Doesn't have to. I can see it |
01:02:16 |
Somehow... |
01:02:19 |
...Frankie thinks he should've |
01:02:22 |
...should've saved my eye. |
01:02:27 |
Spends his life wishing he could |
01:02:32 |
I wanted to go to 110. |
01:02:36 |
Thing is... |
01:02:38 |
...if you wanna get to the title... |
01:02:41 |
...maybe he's not the one |
01:02:49 |
You tell Mr. Mack we'd be here tonight? |
01:02:55 |
You go on, eat your cupcake. |
01:02:57 |
No, I got it. |
01:03:05 |
It's the rule. |
01:03:07 |
Always protect yourself. |
01:03:10 |
People never take their own advice. |
01:03:13 |
If she was gonna leave Frankie, |
01:03:22 |
Mr. Mickey Mack? |
01:03:24 |
I'm Maggie Fitzgerald. |
01:03:27 |
I hear you're a real good manager, |
01:03:33 |
But I thought you should know |
01:03:37 |
...so you don't need to make any more |
01:03:42 |
Sorry for interrupting your dinner. |
01:03:48 |
Maggie always did like |
01:04:26 |
The letters always came back |
01:04:30 |
"Return to sender." |
01:05:01 |
I'll make you some coffee. |
01:05:06 |
What are you doing with your money? |
01:05:08 |
- Saving it. |
01:05:12 |
You know, you save enough of it, |
01:05:16 |
Cash, no mortgage. |
01:05:17 |
Gonna be a while before I can do that. |
01:05:23 |
Yeah, well, it might be a stretch... |
01:05:26 |
...but you gotta get yourself |
01:05:29 |
Go around wasting it on things |
01:05:33 |
You understand? |
01:05:34 |
Pretty soon, you wait long enough, |
01:05:38 |
Okay, soon as I get the money. |
01:05:41 |
I made a lot of mistakes in my life. I'm just |
01:05:45 |
I know, boss. |
01:05:48 |
- I'm not gonna live forever. |
01:05:51 |
It's a tape on that girl in England |
01:05:54 |
If you're gonna go for the title, |
01:05:57 |
Hey, get the hell down. |
01:06:00 |
- Thank you, boss. Thank you so much. |
01:06:03 |
You're welcome, darling. Here, just... |
01:06:07 |
What machine? |
01:06:10 |
Don't have a TV, huh? |
01:06:12 |
No. |
01:06:14 |
Yeah! |
01:06:16 |
All right. Okay. |
01:06:25 |
- Ten minutes, love. |
01:06:28 |
Man says he loves me. |
01:06:29 |
He's probably not |
01:06:32 |
First since my daddy. |
01:06:35 |
I win, you think he'll propose? |
01:06:37 |
You win, I'll propose. |
01:06:43 |
Look, I got you a gift here. |
01:06:50 |
I think they gave you somebody else's. |
01:06:52 |
No, no, this is it. |
01:06:55 |
What's it mean? |
01:06:56 |
I don't know. |
01:07:01 |
- It's beautiful. |
01:07:05 |
- Yeah. |
01:07:10 |
From the United States |
01:07:15 |
...Maggie Fitzgerald. |
01:07:20 |
Mo cuishle. |
01:07:22 |
- Mo cuishle. Mo cuishle. |
01:07:29 |
She wasn't the main attraction. |
01:07:31 |
She was on the undercard |
01:07:35 |
But ask someone who was there... |
01:07:37 |
... they couldn't tell you who else |
01:07:46 |
Box. |
01:08:08 |
- Come on! |
01:08:11 |
Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! |
01:08:16 |
Mo cuishle! |
01:08:19 |
Mo cuishle! |
01:08:22 |
Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! |
01:08:34 |
She's tough. |
01:08:37 |
I can't get inside. |
01:08:40 |
- You know why that is? |
01:08:43 |
She's a better fighter than you are. |
01:08:45 |
She's younger, she's stronger, |
01:08:49 |
...what are you gonna do about it? |
01:08:59 |
Get in there. |
01:09:02 |
Box. |
01:09:17 |
Three, four, five, six... |
01:09:22 |
...seven, eight, nine, ten. |
01:09:28 |
Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! |
01:09:38 |
- Mo cuishle! |
01:09:49 |
I could ask someone, you know? |
01:09:52 |
Good. |
01:09:53 |
You find out, you let me know. |
01:10:02 |
Whatever it meant, the name stuck. |
01:10:05 |
Maggie fought in Edinburgh and Paris, |
01:10:10 |
It was always mo cuishle. |
01:10:13 |
Seems there are |
01:10:16 |
... or people who wanna be. |
01:10:18 |
By the time they came back |
01:10:22 |
... Maggie was in a whole new league. |
01:10:42 |
Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! |
01:10:56 |
After that they got another offer |
01:11:02 |
What's the split? |
01:11:04 |
- Sixty-forty. |
01:11:07 |
We'll take 60 and you take 40, |
01:11:11 |
That little girl? |
01:11:13 |
You think I'm wrong, really? |
01:11:17 |
...that they wanna see some scabby Kraut |
01:11:21 |
You find someone who says that, |
01:11:31 |
There you go. |
01:11:36 |
They're at 60-40, |
01:11:40 |
How's that girl doing? |
01:11:42 |
Well, she's got a concussion |
01:11:46 |
She be all right? |
01:11:48 |
- And if she isn't? |
01:11:52 |
Well, you could send her your check |
01:12:01 |
Boss? |
01:12:03 |
That little house we talked about? |
01:12:05 |
I bought it. |
01:12:07 |
Well, smart girl. |
01:12:10 |
For my mama. It's only about a mile |
01:12:14 |
No mortgage, just like you said. |
01:12:19 |
You're a good daughter. |
01:12:21 |
She don't know about it yet. |
01:12:24 |
I was hoping maybe we could |
01:12:27 |
I know she wants to meet you. |
01:12:32 |
Yeah, we could do that. |
01:12:52 |
Oh, my God. Mama, come on out here. |
01:12:55 |
Mary M.'s here. |
01:13:14 |
- This is the Johnsons' old house. |
01:13:22 |
It's all yours, Mama. |
01:13:26 |
- Mary M., you bought this for me? |
01:13:30 |
Darling... |
01:13:32 |
There's no fridge. No stove neither. |
01:13:34 |
They'll be here before you move in. |
01:13:38 |
- How much money did this cost you? |
01:13:40 |
- You shouldn't have done this. |
01:13:43 |
You shouldn't have done it. |
01:13:48 |
Government's gonna find out about this, |
01:13:51 |
- Mama, no, they ain't. |
01:13:55 |
...but I can't live without my welfare. |
01:13:57 |
Mama, I'll send you money. |
01:13:59 |
What about my medicine? |
01:14:03 |
- How am I supposed to get my medicine? |
01:14:07 |
I hope you don't expect J.D. |
01:14:09 |
He's getting out, you know. |
01:14:11 |
Why didn't you just give me the money? |
01:14:15 |
Why'd you have to buy me a house? |
01:14:18 |
I didn't have to, Mama, but it's yours. |
01:14:23 |
You want the money, sell it. |
01:14:32 |
I don't... |
01:14:40 |
I know you didn't mean |
01:14:42 |
...but sometimes you just |
01:14:45 |
- That's true, Mama. |
01:14:49 |
I'm just worried about |
01:14:51 |
I'll send you some more money. |
01:15:02 |
That man hitting you? |
01:15:06 |
It's from the fight. |
01:15:09 |
I'm a fighter, Mama. |
01:15:11 |
Find a man, Mary M. |
01:15:13 |
Live proper. |
01:15:15 |
People hear about what you're doing |
01:15:18 |
Hurts me to tell you, |
01:16:13 |
Hi. |
01:16:45 |
You ever own a dog? |
01:16:47 |
Nope. |
01:16:49 |
Closest I ever came was |
01:16:56 |
My daddy had a German shepherd, Axel. |
01:17:00 |
Axel's hindquarters were so bad... |
01:17:02 |
...he had to drag himself |
01:17:06 |
Me and Mardell would bust up laughing... |
01:17:09 |
...watching him scoot |
01:17:13 |
Daddy, he was so sick by then, |
01:17:19 |
But one morning he got up, |
01:17:22 |
...and the two of them went off |
01:17:27 |
But it wasn't till he got home |
01:17:31 |
...the shovel in the back of the truck. |
01:17:39 |
Sure miss watching |
01:17:50 |
I got nobody but you, Frankie. |
01:17:56 |
Well, you've got me. |
01:18:01 |
At least, that is, |
01:18:13 |
Hey, can we stop just up here? |
01:18:17 |
Yeah. |
01:18:19 |
This place has |
01:18:22 |
None of that canned-filling crap. |
01:18:40 |
Now I can die and go to heaven. |
01:18:47 |
I used to come here with Daddy. |
01:18:51 |
Wonder if a place like this is for sale. |
01:18:53 |
I got a little bit of savings. |
01:19:03 |
That's fine, fine, thanks. |
01:19:10 |
Hey, what the hell's Danger looking at? |
01:19:13 |
Looks like another bottle of water. |
01:19:15 |
Wanna come to Vegas with us? |
01:19:18 |
Watch you suffer over the nickel slots? |
01:19:23 |
Well, she's got a title shot. |
01:19:27 |
Million dollars, |
01:19:29 |
That's good, Frankie. That's real good. |
01:19:31 |
Well, I could use a good second. |
01:19:33 |
Can't find one, |
01:19:35 |
Now, why the hell |
01:19:37 |
Well, because you're a half-blind old fool |
01:19:42 |
I thought you might like to feel what |
01:19:45 |
Excuse me for feeling sorry for you. |
01:19:49 |
No, you pick up somebody |
01:19:53 |
Somebody with young hands. |
01:19:54 |
You're not gonna cry now, are you? |
01:19:59 |
I leave this place for one day... |
01:20:01 |
...got any idea what it would look like |
01:20:04 |
Kind of like it looks right now. |
01:20:06 |
Oh, go to hell. |
01:20:10 |
You tell Maggie don't come back here |
01:20:13 |
Will do. |
01:20:19 |
Hey, Mr. Scrap. |
01:20:21 |
I got a question, |
01:20:24 |
No such thing as |
01:20:27 |
Okay. |
01:20:31 |
How'd you get all the ice in here |
01:20:35 |
I've been thinking on it. |
01:20:37 |
Can't figure it out. |
01:20:39 |
Why don't I show you, Danger. |
01:20:41 |
- You could do that? You could show me? |
01:20:45 |
Also, Mr. Scrap, I was kind of thinking |
01:20:53 |
Well, I got the tickets. You ready? |
01:20:56 |
- We're flying? |
01:21:00 |
You're asking me? |
01:21:03 |
Would you rather fly, |
01:21:06 |
So I finally get to decide something? |
01:21:09 |
That's what I'm saying. |
01:21:11 |
Fine. |
01:21:12 |
Fly there, drive back. |
01:21:14 |
That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. |
01:21:18 |
You said it was up to me. |
01:21:30 |
Give them hell there, Danger. |
01:21:32 |
Hey, old school, |
01:21:40 |
Hey, Flippy, come here for a minute. |
01:21:44 |
Jesus. |
01:21:46 |
Jesus, Mary and Joseph. |
01:21:49 |
Oh, God! |
01:21:56 |
Dumb-ass. |
01:21:58 |
Come on, Danger. Come on, Danger. |
01:22:00 |
Come on. Defense! |
01:22:02 |
Could be sitting up at the Mirage... |
01:22:05 |
...drinking mai tais... |
01:22:08 |
...Iooking at naked women. |
01:22:10 |
Come on, Danger, |
01:22:16 |
Danger, get out of there! |
01:22:25 |
Fight back! Come on! |
01:22:27 |
- There you go, Danger, there you go! |
01:22:31 |
Jab him with the left. |
01:22:32 |
Come on. |
01:22:43 |
Hey, come on now, Flip. |
01:22:44 |
- What you doing? Let him go. |
01:22:47 |
I got you. Come on, come on. |
01:22:50 |
It's all right. |
01:22:54 |
We don't need no corner trainer. |
01:22:55 |
How'd I do, Mr. Scrap? |
01:22:57 |
You did good, Danger. You did real good. |
01:22:59 |
You my man. You rock. |
01:23:01 |
Come on, Flip, man, you ain't done. |
01:23:03 |
You ain't even fight good yet. |
01:23:06 |
Anybody can lose one fight. |
01:23:08 |
Anybody can lose one, son. |
01:23:11 |
You'll be champion of the world. |
01:23:13 |
No, I won't, Mr. Scrap. |
01:23:16 |
I should have knowed. |
01:23:18 |
- Come on. We don't need to be talking. |
01:23:21 |
Oh, no, I can do her. |
01:23:25 |
All right. |
01:23:28 |
Come on, don't take the gloves off, man. |
01:23:33 |
Mind if I borrow this, Danger? |
01:23:36 |
Man, I thought your name was Danger. |
01:23:39 |
Come on, now. |
01:23:41 |
Oh, oh, I see. Now I get to fight |
01:23:45 |
Call ESPN, because you can't |
01:23:57 |
Look out, Shawrelle. Easy, Shawrelle. |
01:24:01 |
Keep going, man. |
01:24:02 |
All right, man. |
01:24:11 |
He ain't so tough. |
01:24:13 |
One hundred and ten. |
01:24:20 |
Get a job, punk. |
01:24:53 |
Win this one, I'll tell you what it means. |
01:24:57 |
I got you some pipers. |
01:25:13 |
Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! |
01:25:17 |
Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! |
01:25:30 |
All right, now! |
01:26:21 |
I want you to jab her right in the tits... |
01:26:24 |
...until they turn blue and fall off. |
01:26:42 |
Ladies and gentlemen, |
01:26:46 |
...presentation of the evening. |
01:26:48 |
In this corner, the challenger, |
01:26:53 |
...in the red corner. |
01:26:55 |
In the blue corner... |
01:26:57 |
...the WBA welterweight champion |
01:27:02 |
...Billie "The Blue Bear." |
01:27:08 |
Sweet Jesus. |
01:27:25 |
Fitzgerald is pushing The Blue Bear |
01:27:31 |
Challenger darts in, lands a combination |
01:27:35 |
- And a right hook stuns the champ. |
01:27:39 |
Break it up! |
01:27:43 |
Break it! Break it! |
01:27:51 |
Do that one more time, |
01:27:56 |
Go fight. |
01:28:05 |
You motherfucker. |
01:28:15 |
Come on. What the fuck? |
01:28:18 |
All right, that's it. |
01:28:21 |
One point deduction |
01:28:25 |
- comes back, hits Fitzgerald... |
01:28:26 |
Ref, open your eyes, you... |
01:28:46 |
Ladies and gentlemen, the first round |
01:28:53 |
- Hold onto that. |
01:29:00 |
- Looking good. |
01:29:03 |
...you're disqualified. |
01:29:13 |
It's gonna be all right. |
01:29:15 |
Got no doubt, boss. |
01:29:19 |
Okay, just watch yourself. |
01:29:22 |
Stay away from this dame. |
01:29:36 |
Go to the neutral corner. |
01:29:40 |
- Four, five, six... |
01:29:43 |
...seven, eight, nine. |
01:29:59 |
Yeah, yeah! |
01:30:03 |
Break it! Break it! |
01:30:11 |
Fitzgerald continues to pummel |
01:30:29 |
Yes! Come on! |
01:30:31 |
I got it! I got it. |
01:30:39 |
Eyes are blurring, boss. |
01:30:40 |
- How many eyes you need to finish this? |
01:30:47 |
- Good. |
01:30:48 |
...what do I do about the Bear? |
01:30:50 |
Do you know that step into the outside |
01:30:53 |
- I been doing that. She's made of steel. |
01:30:57 |
I want you to hit her right up |
01:31:00 |
Right in the sciatic nerve. |
01:31:03 |
And just keep sticking her. |
01:31:06 |
- What about the ref? |
01:31:09 |
...and everything will just be fine. |
01:31:13 |
This is yours. You keep your guard up. |
01:31:15 |
You keep it up. |
01:31:30 |
Oh, yeah! |
01:31:42 |
Break, break! |
01:31:51 |
Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! Mo cuishle! |
01:32:24 |
Doctor. |
01:32:40 |
Come on. |
01:32:42 |
Breathe. |
01:32:44 |
That's it. Breathe. |
01:32:47 |
Good. |
01:32:48 |
Look at me. Concentrate on me. |
01:32:51 |
Breathe. |
01:32:53 |
Good. |
01:32:55 |
That's it. |
01:32:57 |
Breathe. |
01:33:47 |
How you feeling, darling? |
01:33:57 |
Growing a beard, boss? |
01:34:00 |
I thought it might help me |
01:34:05 |
Can't say it does. |
01:34:35 |
Does it...? Does it hurt much? |
01:34:39 |
Don't hurt at all. |
01:34:43 |
Well, that's good. |
01:34:51 |
Where's Frankie? |
01:34:54 |
Well, he's... |
01:34:56 |
He's out there talking to the doctors. |
01:34:58 |
Probably telling them how to do their job. |
01:35:04 |
They're telling him |
01:35:11 |
Means that my spinal cord's so broke |
01:35:20 |
Gonna be frozen like this |
01:35:28 |
I asked them to tell him. |
01:35:41 |
Did you see the fight? |
01:35:45 |
Of course I did. |
01:35:48 |
You had her cold, Maggie. |
01:35:52 |
I shouldn't have dropped my hands. |
01:35:58 |
I shouldn't have turned. |
01:36:08 |
Always protect myself. |
01:36:10 |
How many times he tell me that? |
01:36:14 |
Yeah... |
01:36:16 |
...he does like to repeat himself. |
01:36:22 |
Will you tell him I'm real sorry? |
01:36:30 |
No. |
01:36:32 |
I won't do no such thing, Maggie. |
01:36:54 |
Damnedest thing. |
01:37:00 |
So, what's the plan? |
01:37:02 |
I know you got one, |
01:37:06 |
It's your fault. |
01:37:08 |
Yeah, it's your fault |
01:37:11 |
You kept after me until I trained her. |
01:37:14 |
I knew I shouldn't have done it, |
01:37:18 |
Everything kept telling me not to. |
01:37:20 |
Everything but you. |
01:37:33 |
I'm gonna get you out of here. |
01:37:34 |
These doctors around here |
01:37:37 |
Otherwise, why would they be |
01:37:40 |
As soon as you're able to be moved... |
01:37:43 |
...we'll find some place where |
01:37:49 |
You just rest there, I'II... |
01:37:53 |
I'm on it. |
01:38:04 |
Frankie must have called |
01:38:06 |
... looking for somebody |
01:38:09 |
He came close twice, |
01:38:14 |
... said there was nothing to be done. |
01:38:16 |
Took two months till she was |
01:38:25 |
They got nurses for that, you know. |
01:38:29 |
Yeah, but they're amateurs. |
01:38:43 |
She developed skin ulcers |
01:38:59 |
Thank you. |
01:39:10 |
They made the six-hour trip |
01:39:25 |
Fly there, drive back. |
01:39:34 |
The rehab center Frankie found |
01:39:38 |
They took good care of Maggie. |
01:39:40 |
She wouldn't have complained |
01:39:43 |
Took several hours every day |
01:39:53 |
One, two, three, up. |
01:39:57 |
Since she couldn't breathe on her own... |
01:40:00 |
... her respirators were always on. |
01:40:04 |
Oxygen was pumped into her |
01:40:34 |
Maggie's mama called to say |
01:40:37 |
She waited by the window |
01:40:42 |
Sure. |
01:40:43 |
Frankie finally tracked them down. |
01:40:46 |
Learned they'd checked into their hotel |
01:40:50 |
Kept leaving messages |
01:40:58 |
You don't have to hang around all day. |
01:41:04 |
I like it here. I don't mind. |
01:41:08 |
In fact, if you weren't here, |
01:41:15 |
Mama will be here soon |
01:41:18 |
Well, it's no burden. |
01:41:21 |
Here. |
01:41:24 |
Read this. |
01:41:35 |
Okay, okay, that's enough. |
01:41:37 |
That's terrible. |
01:41:41 |
Anyway, I'll tell you in English |
01:41:47 |
It says: |
01:41:49 |
I will arise and go now |
01:41:52 |
And a small cabin build there |
01:41:58 |
And I shall have some peace there |
01:42:03 |
Dropping from the veils of the morning |
01:42:10 |
Not bad, huh? |
01:42:16 |
You gonna build a cabin, boss? |
01:42:19 |
- Me? |
01:42:23 |
You know, when you quit all this. |
01:42:28 |
You mean boxing? |
01:42:30 |
No, I'll never quit. |
01:42:34 |
I like the stink too much, I guess. |
01:42:42 |
You think? |
01:42:45 |
...with your books and lemon pie. |
01:42:49 |
How about you? |
01:42:54 |
I could learn how to bake. |
01:43:00 |
Well, then, I'II... |
01:43:02 |
Maybe I'll start looking then. |
01:43:26 |
Yeah. |
01:43:30 |
- Go ahead. |
01:43:36 |
Hi, I'm Frankie Dunn. |
01:43:39 |
Where's my little girl? |
01:43:40 |
Don't you think you ought to go back |
01:43:43 |
She doesn't know you've been here |
01:43:46 |
We got business with my sister. |
01:43:50 |
Oh, you must be J.D. |
01:43:53 |
There's some rides you missed. |
01:43:55 |
Why don't you go back. |
01:43:57 |
I drove all the way here |
01:44:00 |
And you're suggesting |
01:44:02 |
Mary M. Can't go nowhere. |
01:44:04 |
If we could've taken her to Disneyland, |
01:44:08 |
Margaret Fitzgerald? |
01:44:10 |
Right down here, 301. |
01:44:12 |
- Come on, Mama. |
01:44:20 |
And I saw myself breathing. |
01:44:23 |
Like, my body was going up and down. |
01:44:25 |
I thought, |
01:44:31 |
Your hair needs washing. |
01:44:48 |
It's just a... |
01:44:50 |
It's just some kind of legal thing. |
01:44:53 |
What is it? |
01:44:54 |
How we all doing here? |
01:44:56 |
Sorry, darling, |
01:44:59 |
Mr. Johnson's charging us a lot of money |
01:45:03 |
Why don't you just leave that. |
01:45:06 |
Hey, old man... |
01:45:08 |
...you part of our family? |
01:45:10 |
Stay the hell out of this. |
01:45:14 |
Read it to me, Mama. |
01:45:15 |
Well, it's just something legal |
01:45:20 |
Mama, you don't have to worry. |
01:45:22 |
The boxing commission's |
01:45:26 |
But what if they don't, Mary M? |
01:45:28 |
Mr. Johnson says |
01:45:31 |
If you assign your assets to your mother, |
01:45:35 |
No doctors, no funeral expenses. |
01:45:37 |
- Nothing. |
01:45:40 |
- Then I'll just read it to her later on... |
01:45:46 |
All right. I'll be out in the hall. |
01:45:54 |
You been a good daughter, Mary M. |
01:45:58 |
You sign that paper... |
01:46:01 |
...it'll take care of your family... |
01:46:03 |
...the way your daddy |
01:46:10 |
How do you make your mark? |
01:46:15 |
Can you hold a pen? |
01:46:16 |
She gotta do it with her teeth, Mama. |
01:46:18 |
You gotta put it in her mouth. |
01:46:22 |
Here you go, honey. |
01:46:27 |
Did you see the fight, Mama? |
01:46:29 |
Honey, you know how I feel about that. |
01:46:33 |
I did pretty good. |
01:46:35 |
You lost, Mary M. |
01:46:37 |
Ain't your fault, the way I heard it, |
01:46:43 |
Don't wanna lose the rest |
01:46:46 |
There you go. |
01:46:57 |
What happened to you? |
01:46:59 |
Well, what's that supposed to mean? |
01:47:03 |
Mama, you take Mardell and J.D. |
01:47:08 |
Before I tell that lawyer that you were |
01:47:11 |
...you never signed those house papers |
01:47:17 |
So any time I feel like it, |
01:47:20 |
...from under your fat, lazy, |
01:47:25 |
And if you ever come back, |
01:48:10 |
Well, maybe someone ought |
01:48:28 |
Don't smell real pretty, does it, doc? |
01:48:33 |
We might have to lose it, Maggie. |
01:49:51 |
They took my leg, boss. |
01:49:59 |
It's gonna be all right, you hear? |
01:50:02 |
I always hear your voice, boss. |
01:50:37 |
You need anything? |
01:50:43 |
I need to know what "mo cuishle" means. |
01:50:47 |
But you didn't win. |
01:50:49 |
I don't have to tell you. |
01:50:55 |
You're the meanest man I ever met. |
01:50:58 |
No wonder no one loves you. |
01:51:04 |
You remind me of my daddy. |
01:51:09 |
Well, he must have been... |
01:51:11 |
...a very intelligent, handsome man. |
01:51:18 |
You ain't gonna make me talk |
01:51:24 |
No, I was... |
01:51:26 |
...Iooking at this catalog |
01:51:32 |
I thought I'd get you a wheelchair... |
01:51:34 |
...maybe the kind that operates |
01:51:39 |
I thought maybe you'd like |
01:51:47 |
I got a favor to ask you, boss. |
01:51:51 |
Sure. |
01:51:54 |
Anything you want. |
01:51:58 |
Remember what my daddy did for Axel? |
01:52:14 |
Don't even think about that. |
01:52:20 |
I can't be like this, Frankie. |
01:52:26 |
Not after what I done. |
01:52:28 |
I seen the world. |
01:52:33 |
People chanted my name. |
01:52:36 |
Well... |
01:52:39 |
...not my name, |
01:52:46 |
But they were chanting for me. |
01:52:52 |
I was in magazines. |
01:52:58 |
You think I ever dreamed that'd happen? |
01:53:05 |
I was born at 2 pounds, |
01:53:12 |
Daddy used to tell me |
01:53:19 |
...and I'd fight my way out. |
01:53:26 |
That's all I wanna do, Frankie. |
01:53:32 |
I just don't wanna fight you to do it. |
01:53:37 |
I got what I needed. |
01:53:42 |
I got it all. |
01:53:48 |
Don't let them keep |
01:53:57 |
Don't let me lie here till I can't hear |
01:54:06 |
I can't. |
01:54:09 |
Please. |
01:54:14 |
Please, don't ask me. |
01:54:18 |
I'm asking. |
01:54:24 |
I can't. |
01:55:10 |
Hello? |
01:55:17 |
In the middle of the night... |
01:55:19 |
... Maggie had found her own solution. |
01:55:23 |
She had bit her tongue. |
01:55:32 |
Stop. Stop. |
01:55:38 |
Look at me. Look at me. |
01:55:55 |
Nearly bled to death |
01:56:00 |
She came around and ripped them out |
01:56:04 |
They stitched her up again... |
01:56:07 |
... padded the tongue |
01:56:28 |
You can't do it, you know that. |
01:56:32 |
I do, Father. |
01:56:35 |
But you don't know how thick she is... |
01:56:37 |
...how hard it was to train her. |
01:56:40 |
Other fighters would do |
01:56:44 |
...and she'd ask, why this and why that, |
01:56:50 |
How she fought for the title, I... |
01:56:53 |
It wasn't by anything... |
01:56:55 |
Well, it wasn't by listening to me. |
01:57:07 |
But now she wants to die... |
01:57:09 |
...and I just wanna keep her with me. |
01:57:16 |
And I swear to God, Father, it's... |
01:57:20 |
It's committing a sin by doing it. |
01:57:23 |
By keeping her alive, I'm killing her. |
01:57:27 |
Do you know what I mean? |
01:57:32 |
You don't. You step aside, Frankie. |
01:57:35 |
You leave her with God. |
01:57:37 |
She's not asking for God's help. |
01:57:41 |
Frankie, I've seen you at Mass |
01:57:45 |
The only person comes |
01:57:47 |
...is the kind who can't |
01:57:49 |
Whatever sins you're carrying... |
01:57:52 |
...they're nothing compared to this. |
01:57:55 |
Forget about God or heaven and hell. |
01:57:59 |
If you do this thing, you'll be lost. |
01:58:06 |
Somewhere so deep... |
01:58:10 |
...you'll never find yourself again. |
01:58:18 |
I think I did it already. |
01:58:43 |
We're keeping her sedated |
01:59:51 |
I went to see Maggie this morning. |
01:59:56 |
You must have been somewhere else. |
01:59:59 |
Yeah. |
02:00:05 |
You got a fight I don't know about? |
02:00:12 |
It wasn't your fault. |
02:00:15 |
I was wrong to say that. |
02:00:17 |
You're damn right. |
02:00:21 |
I found you a fighter... |
02:00:22 |
...and you made her |
02:00:28 |
I killed her. |
02:00:30 |
Don't say that. |
02:00:32 |
Maggie walked through that door |
02:00:35 |
No chance in the world of being |
02:00:38 |
A year and a half later, she's fighting |
02:00:42 |
You did that. |
02:00:45 |
People die every day, Frankie. |
02:00:48 |
Mopping floors, washing dishes. |
02:00:50 |
And you know what |
02:00:52 |
"I never got my shot." |
02:00:55 |
Because of you, Maggie got her shot. |
02:00:59 |
If she dies today, you know what |
02:01:03 |
"I think I did all right." |
02:01:13 |
I know I could rest with that. |
02:01:18 |
Yeah. |
02:01:20 |
Yeah. |
02:01:33 |
Yeah. |
02:02:13 |
I'm gonna get a cup of coffee. |
02:02:14 |
Yeah. |
02:02:43 |
All right. |
02:02:49 |
I'm gonna disconnect your air machine... |
02:02:52 |
...then you're gonna go to sleep. |
02:02:59 |
Then I'll give you a shot, and you'II... |
02:03:03 |
...stay asleep. |
02:03:10 |
Mo cuishle... |
02:03:13 |
...means "my darling, my blood." |
02:04:25 |
He gave her a single shot. |
02:04:28 |
It was enough adrenaline |
02:04:33 |
He didn't want her |
02:05:25 |
Then he walked out. |
02:05:28 |
I don't think he had anything left. |
02:05:49 |
I went back to the gym. |
02:05:52 |
Waited, figuring he'd turn up |
02:06:15 |
