Cinderella Man

Cinderella Man
Cinderella Man (2005)

IMDB rating: 8.00

Plot: During the Great Depression, a common-man hero, James J. Braddock—a.k.a. the Cinderella Man—was to become one of the most surprising sports legends in history. By the early 1930s, the impoverished ex-prizefighter was seemingly as broken-down, beaten-up and out-of-luck as much of the rest of the American populace who had hit rock bottom. His career appeared to be finished, he was unable to pay the bills, the only thing that mattered to him—his family—was in danger, and he was even forced to go on Public Relief. But deep inside, Jim Braddock never relinquished his determination. Driven by love, honor and an incredible dose of grit, he willed an impossible dream to come true. In a last-chance bid to help his family, Braddock returned to the ring. No one thought he had a shot. However Braddock, fueled by something beyond mere competition, kept winning. Suddenly, the ordinary working man became the mythic athlete. Carrying the hopes and dreams of the disenfranchised on his shoulders, Braddock rocketed through the ranks, until this underdog chose to do the unthinkable: take on the heavyweight champ of the world, the unstoppable Max Baer, renowned for having killed two men in the ring.

What's your favorite Russell Crowe movie?
Russell’s my favorite actor in the world, and my personal favorite is "3:10 To Yuma", although I have to say I think his best performance so far has been in "Cinderella Man".


Although Gladiator was amazing, LA Confidential is the only movie I’ve ever gone to a theater to see 3 times. It is the movie that told me this guy as going to be a star. So LA Confidential.

I have a little school problem? What would you choose?
I go to a community college and this semester, my aunt is paying because I’m broke, but next semester when I can find a job again, I’ll be paying. She says that she will pay up to 6 classes for me this semester. I was very happy to hear this, because it will save me a few hundred bucks, but the problem is I can only handle 3 classes top per semester because the workload overwhelms me and last semester I didn’t do too well and the dean warn me that if I don’t pass my class this semester, he would place me on academic probation. So should I take 3 classes or take all 6? My biggest fear is that it’s too much for me handle and I will end up giving up. But my aunt is willing to pay for only this semester and I want to save a few bucks, but will thining this way put me at risk of failing? Because like I said I doubt I can handle that many classes at this time in my life.

BTW I already registered for 6 classes, but I have one more week to drop without a W and a refund.


If you dont think you can handle all 6 classes, dont take your chances. Maybe take the 3 so you can have some time for work. Once you earn up some money you may be able to take 6 classes next semester. Like alot of people say… "Its better to be safe than sorry".
E | Feb 07, 2010


this is a great opportunity for you….take advantage of it.
That Guy (BU) | Feb 07, 2010


There is never a I CANT in life. You CAN if you try hard enough. I would say manage your time well in College and you will do fine. To put this bluntly, if you have time to be browsing through yahoo answers, you probably have enough time to do all your homework and study and such. Just be sure to always do your homework first and plan out your day. I do not doubt that it will make your experience in College a better one.

Good Luck!

Meanwhile, Sam befriends an attractive neighborhood boutique owner Maria (Ashley Laurence) and becomes unwittingly entwined in a threatening love triangle when she reveals that ex-boyfriend Detective Defazio (James Russo), who is investigating the recent disappearance of two local prostitutes, is stalking her. But it’s what Sam doesn’t know that might prove more fatal. A darker, diabolical secret lurks behind the freezer walls of his newfound employment.

The Legend of 1900

The Legend of 1900
The Legend of 1900 (1998)

IMDB rating: 7.80

Plot: Shortly after the Second World War, Max, a transplanted American, visits an English pawn shop to sell his trumpet. The shopkeeper recognizes the tune Max plays as one on a wax master of an unreleased recording, discovered and restored from shards found in a piano salvaged from a cruise ship turned hospital ship, now slated for demolition. This chance discovery prompts a story from Max, which he relates both to the shopkeeper and later to the official responsible for the doomed vessel, for Max is a born storyteller. Though now down on his luck and disillusioned by his wartime experiences, the New Orleans-born Max was once an enthusiastic and gifted young jazz musician, whose longest gig was several years with the house band aboard the Virginian, a posh cruise ship. While gaining his sea legs, he was befriended by another young man, the pianist in the same band, whose long unlikely name was Danny Boodman T.D. Lemons 1900, though everyone just called him 1900, the year of his birth. Abandoned in first class by his immigrant parents, 1900 was found and adopted by Danny, a stoker, and raised in the engine rooms, learning to read by reading horseracing reports to his adoptive dad. After Danny’s death in an accident, 1900 remained on the ship. Increasingly lured by the sound of the piano in the first-class ballroom, he eventually became a gifted pianist, a great jazz improvisationist, a composer of rich modern music inspired by his intense observation of the life around him, the stories passengers on all levels of the ship trusted him enough to tell. He also grew up to be a charming, iconoclastic young man, at once shrewd and oddly innocent. His talent earned him such accolades that he was challenged by, and bested Jelly Roll Morton in an intense piano duel that had poor Max chewing paper on the sofa in agonies of suspense. And yet for all the richness and variety of his musical expression, he never left the ship, except almost, once, in the aftermath of his infatuation with a beautiful young woman immigrant who inspired the music committed to the master Max discovers in the pawnshop. Max realizes that 1900 must still be on the ship, and determines to find him, and to find out once and for all why he has so consistently refused to leave.

What kind of music is played on cruise in 19th century?
I just watched "the legend of 1900" and I wonder what kind of music the band played when there is a party. For example, the music when Mr. 1900 and the band played when the violist is introducing the band.
Thanks.


Hi! Here is the Soundtrack CD of the movie. Yo can listen every song and find it:

In Cold Blood

In Cold Blood
In Cold Blood (1967)

IMDB rating: 8.20

Plot: Truman Capote wrote the ‘non-fiction novel’ from which the film is drawn, using the novelist’s craft to render reality. The reality was that at two a.m. on November 15, 1959 in the rural town of Holcomb, Kansas, the four members of the Clutter family were roused from their sleep, bound and gagged, and then brutally murdered by two unknown assailants. After the latters’ capture, sentencing and imprisonment prior to execution, Capote researched the case thoroughly, spent weeks talking with the prisoners, Perry Smith and Richard Hickock, jurors, police, friends and neighbors, trying to unearth why such a senseless act was committed, and what society’s response might have been.

Why have I lost so much weight then suddenly stopped? How can I lose more?
Before I used to be really skinny when I was young then growing up in my teen years I put on a lot of weight, gradually I was just getting bigger, the most I ever was, was 228 pounds then I moved to college and just dropped to 195. Over the christmas holidays i put it back to about 215 now I am trying to lose weight. I was going back down at a decent rate until I weighed 200 and stayed there for days.

I barely eat, I eat only lunch and supper which consists of a small plate of pasta or chicken or something at the cafeteria and a small milk. I quit drinking pop altogether, I quit junk food so I don’t eat any chocolate, chips or candy, and I don’t eat anything 6 or 7 hours before I go to bed. I don’t work out because it’s difficult to go to the gym, but I go walking 2 hours every night because I enjoy it. It seems since I started walking I haven’t went down.

Please, do you know why I won’t go down further? Also I would really appreciate any advice you have on how I could lose more weight, all comments are helpful.


This ebook is definitely worth a read.

some quick weight loss tips and tricks
http://www.iwillguide.com ..
kelly | Feb 04, 2010


All the weight you just dropped in a quick manner was excess, or complete fat. It’s so easy to drop all of it, but you have to work to actually get fit. Instead of eating lunch and supper, eat 4 or 5 SMALL meals everyday. Your body knows your eating habits. If you eat 4 or 5 meals a day. The first meal you eat, your body will know, ‘hey! He’s going to feed me again in a couple of hours. So I don’t have to hold on to these carbs. So I can just use them up.’ And it’ll do it for the 2 and 3rd and 4th. You’ll just keep using those carbs and using those carbs. However, if you eat one or 2 meals a day, your body will think, ‘he’s only going to feed me twice today.. so i have to hold onto these carbs right here.. and these right here..’ Basically, eat 4 or 5 small healthy meals everyday. You’ll have a lot more energy and you’ll notice the difference. Definitely keep on with your walks and cutting out the junk food. You’re going in the right direction!

Married but husband wants a bachelor party complete with strippers….key word MARRIED!?
my husband and I have been married for over 8 months. We are having a small reception. He wants to now have a bachelor party with the works and that means strippers. I understand boys may be boys but seriously, we have BEEN married and have a baby. He has had his fun and ’sown his oats’. I don’t mind him having a party but i do not agree with him having strippers. what should i do? I have already told him how i feel and he does not care!!


Dear hubby should NOT have strippers!

As men, we are highly visually stimulated. I’m not saying that women aren’t, but men are more so.

The last thing you want dear husband to do is "play back" those "tapes" in his mind while he is making love to you.

Most of the time he won’t be doing it on purpose, but if he does, it’s because he can’t help it. Especially if he is all charged up after seeing a hot women lap dancing him!

We live in the digital age. With this sucky economy, wait till his boss *just happens* to see those pictures!

4REEE | Feb 03, 2010


wtf? He should not have strippers. Tell him to wake up and face reality. Make sure he knows that if he doesn’t listen to you and gets strippers, it is considered cheating.
Tiffany | Feb 02, 2010


I think you both need to get off your high horses and see each other’s side.

For him – why does he not care about your feelings? Has he told you WHY he doesn’t care? Has he told you WHY it’s important for him to see strippers? What would he say if you wanted strippers (male, of course!) at YOUR bachelorette party?

For you – why does it bother you so much? Do you not trust him? Would this be different had you not been married yet and this be a "true" bachelor party? It shouldn’t be. Strippers don’t change the fact that he loves you. As long as he doesn’t make it a habit, there shouldn’t be a huge problem.

But really, there’s just a clear problem that’s only going to grow. Being married and having a child doesn’t make the relationship healthy. You BOTH need to learn to communicate – meaning speak honestly, calmly, use I messages and LISTEN.
FaZizzle | Feb 02, 2010


tell him that’s fine, but i want a bachelorette party with strippers and their junk in my face too…lots of booze as well, who know what’ll happen..

he might change his mind

i can not bear!!!!
Yoyo W | Feb 02, 2010


What about strippers do you object to?

If you give him some reasoning behind how you feel he might understand and reconsider. You haven’t said anything here that indicates you have a reason to not want him to have strippers at his bachelor party.
Perse | Feb 02, 2010


Well if you’re having a reception whats wrong with him having a bachelor party even with strippers? If you’re planning to have a girls night out or a bridal shower, or any of the other traditions why shouldn’t he be allowed to?

The strippers are paid to work a party its just a job and a way to make money for them, he’s seen naked women before (otherwise you wouldn’t have a baby) what is the big problem, at the end of the night bachelor party with strippers or no, he’s coming home to you, not them.

If he were giving a friend of his a bachelor party would you prohibit him then?

Don’t be so insecure.
Kelly | Feb 03, 2010


Strippers or no strippers, he is no longer a bachelor. He hasn’t been one for 8 months.

I am not a big fan of men going to see strippers, but I know boys sometimes want to be boys. If this is a once in a blue moon thing, let him go. It is just a fantasy world for him. He knows that he has his real woman at home.
Me | Feb 03, 2010


Im more concerned about the lack of etiquette than the strippers.

You are already married!! You dont get any more parties, showers, or celebrations. That ship has sailed. Its a pity he didnt get his party before you actually married, but that was the decision made and now he has to live with it. He doesnt get a bachelor party when he is already married — strippers or not.

i need some help with my presentation?
i am working on a powerpoint presentation for my project about Nietzsche’s theory of eternal recurrence and the novel, The Unbearable Lightness of Being. I am having problems deciding whether i should go right into discussing the theory, or give some information about Nietzsche first. I’m not sure whether or not i should explain Nietzche’s overall philosophy or not? Any help is appreciated.


A professor of mine always said, "assume the audience is retarded". So you might want to explain briefly what Nietzsche and his theories are about.
