Cinderella Man Outiline

The Movie "The Cinderella man" is primarily a underdog story featuring James J. Braddock. This film features some key elements of all story's; the fall, rising action, and the climax (in that order). The movie starts right off during the roaring twenties where everyone in America was making as much money as they could. James was at the top of his league and seemingly could not be stopped. ( http://www.jamesjbraddock.com/gallery/boxing/2/ ) but then the fall happens, otherwise known as the Great Depression. ( http://newdeal.feri.org/sevier/interviews/413s.htm ) James lost everything during that time and barely had enough money to survive. James Could not get a good fight to save his life, on the top of things he was fighting injured. Eventually the boxing commission decided to suspend James's license to box. From there it all started getting worse, but the worse of all was him not being able to provide for his family. As luck would have it the rising action happened, oh joy! James 'technically' gets another fight, however its really just a filler seeing as the guy they needed canceled. With money tight and win or lose 250 dollars it seemed like a dream come true. James got in the ring and BAM! He won! No one expected him do to anything let alone win! Eventually with the cunningness of James's manager James is able to get some more fights! With that his popularity rose again, gaining him the title "Cinderella Man" because of his astonishing fairytale comeback. With the defeat of "corn" Griffin, it put him in the contending for the heavy weight champion of the world! And then the climax, the fight between Max Baer. Which in all honesty had me at the edge of my seat the whole time. It was an amazing fight between the two fighters, and by the vote of the judges James won, and became the heavy weight champion of the world!
