  • The Fighter (2010) Appassionata Cronistoria Di Un Combattente, Tra Vizi Privati E Pubbliche Virtù
    The Fighter (2010) Appassionata cronistoria di un combattente, tra vizi privati e pubbliche virtù. Un film di David O. Russell con Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Mark Wahlberg, Melissa Leo, Dendrie Taylor, Jack McGee, Jenna Lamia, Bianca Hunter, Dale Place, Erica McDermott. Genere Drammatico durata 115 minuti. Produzione USA 2010. Uscita nelle sale: venerdì 4 marzo 2011 La vita di Mickey Ward e del suo allenatore e fratellastro Dickie, dall'infanzia nel Massachusetts fino alla fine della carriera del pugile. Giancarlo Zappoli - www.mymovies.it Dickie e Micky Ward sono due fratelli entrambi pugili. Vivono a Lowell, una cittadina di provincia del Massachusetts in cui Dickie, il maggiore, è divenuto una sorta di leggenda vivente per aver mandato al tappeto Sugar Ray Leonard. Ora però Dickie fuma crack ed è sempre meno lucido ma non vuole smettere di essere l'allenatore del fratello. Il quale è messo sotto pressione anche dall'ambiente familiare. La madre Alice pretende di essere il suo manager, spalleggiata dalla tribù di sorelle del ragazzo. Micky viene mandato allo sbaraglio in un incontro e da lì cresce pian piano il desiderio di affrancarsi da una famiglia davvero troppo pesante da sopportare. L'incontro con la barista Charlene offre un ulteriore impulso a questa separazione. Ma non sarà un percorso facile e, forse, non sarà neanche quello giusto. Un titolo che potremmo definire perfetto 'The Fighter' perché questo film racconta sì di un pugile ma è soprattutto la cronistoria di un combattimento costante di un uomo contro chi, per un malinteso concetto di amore (fraterno o materno che sia), rischia di soffocarne per sempre la personalità.

Durch die Verspätung bedingt ist der Umfang der vorliegenden Ausgabe dafür auf ganze 72 Seiten angewachsen. Und das obwohl wir aus Platzgründen bereits weitestgehend auf Bilder verzichtet haben!
