James J. Braddock - Guestbook
Welcome to the official guestbook of the James J Braddock website. Due to spam, we have been forced stop guestbook entries.
If you ask me it says a lot about America post World War 2. James Braddock was a true boxing hero in tough times, but times have long since changed in America now since Ali claimed he was the greatest. Now in times of wealth and success all they can produce is blokes like Mike Tyson (who I hope watched this movie)

Id like to take my hat off to the man, his wife and especially his kids...today kids dont know what it is like to go hungry and dont appreciate what it truly means to 'do it hard' i can only imagine what it was like to live during the great depression.... and to start with nothing and earn respect and awe in thos days is a true heroes story!!

saw the film last night and loved it. used to box in the 1980's and am not surprised to hear braddock was of irish stock. had a few bouts against quite a few irish men and lost most of them to be honest. tough men indeed

A great film and played so well by Crowe.
One only wishes Jim had been around to see how much he is admired again today.

He truly is one hell of an underdog! Love the movie.

Watched "the" movie last night with my wife and some friends! Its one of the most inspiring real - life story! To come back from where Jim was is a true feat! Some emotional moments in the movie were truly well executed: the one where Jim goes to the club & asks for help from his Boxing fraternity, the one where Mae comes to the dressing room before Jim's fight with Max Baer & also the press conference scene has been enacted well with light but sensible talk by Jim! Only Russell Crowe could have done justice to "Cinderella Man". Kudos!

I saw Cinderella Man in Auckland last night and cannot praise it enough. I shall see it again and again I hope. The fact that it is a true story underscores the raw emotional brilliance of this story. Braddock an ordinary guy whose 'second chance' in his boxing career is motivated simply to support his wife and children. Brilliant and it highlights some uncomfortable social realities about the grim experience of the depression years for many working people.

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING COMPARE, THE VERY INSPIRED STORY
Raymond Iriyanto - Surabaya, East Jawa Indonesia [2005-10-18 22:17:13]
My husband and I watched Cinderella Man yesterday and what a great one it was! A heart warming story and nail biting stuff at the end. I new nothing of him prior to movie previews and it was a story well worth telling. There's nothing like a true story about a great person.
