Southpaw: A Film on Recovery from Life Damaging Circumstances




After watching Rocky I, II, III, IV, V, Rocky Balboa, Creed and the Fighter, Southpaw is another motivational movie which helps you to work out and make you feel that howsoever bad the circumstance may be, there always is a HOPE to come back. Yes, HOPE, the movie Southpaw is about the life of a BILLY HOPE who is professional boxer who is at the peak of his career and has been undefeated for the past 44 matches. He is hot headed and finds difficult to control his anger. His life is woven around his wife and daughter. He is emotionally dependent on his wife and he says that he wouldn't be where he is without his wife.  

But in an unexpected turn to his life, Hope loses his wife who is shot accidentally. Utterly depressed by the loss, Hope loses control over his self, and loses his daughter to the custody of child services as the court feels that her daughter is not safe in the current situation of his father. She is taken away. His property is auctioned away.

He decides to reconstruct himself once again. He is trained by his trainer Tick. After 6 weeks to go for the title shot at the heavyweight he trains himself in order to get her daughter back with him.



The movie is about how about the Recovery from Life Damaging Circumstances.  
Jake Gyllenhaal has portrayed the character of the boxer in an excellent manner and he brings out all the emotions on the screen. Excellent acting by her daughter named Leila who made me cry during the scene when his father meets him at the custody and she says that she wants to go back home.


Those who want to train hard and want to transform themselves should definite lywatch Southpaw.
