They don’t make ’em any better than Clint Eastwood’s, Million Dollar Baby (2004). The underdog boxer (although here it is a female) being pushed by a tough trainer is nothing new in cinema, as we have seen that storyline over and over again throughout the years. And yet, Eastwood (Director, Leading Actor) and screenwriter Paul Haggis deliver original dialogue that stretches beyond boxing and sports, in addition to a few shockers as the film develops. If you think you know where this film is going after the first few scenes, trust me: You don’t.

‘Play Misty For Me’ 1971. was the first and improbably one of the best Eastwood movies. nails the psychotic ex-girlfriend perfectly. a great educational flick.
Indeud…
Excellent!
Eastwood has always been under rated. His early work most so. ‘Play Misty For Me’ 71. ‘Bronco Billy’ 80. The best part is the guy cast his girlfriends. Sondra Locke could not act for shit but was smoking hot.
(Cough, ready for the onslaught of opprobrium – flem spat)
Die, Clint, Die! Fucking Traitor! You has been propagandist punk.
BRA the guy is 1000 years old. Not making excuses just pointing out the possible scenario of old age.
Hilary Swank won and deserved the Oscur for this touching film. She truley was “The Greatest” in this movie.
