The whole need for an antagonist (aside from the Depression) must have put the writers in quite the pickle. So how did they fix it? By totally destroying Max Baer.
As you can read here, Baer was far from the monster he was portrayed as in the movie. Cocky? Sure. Killed some guys in the ring? Yeah. But it's not like he didn't cared. I don't think someone who cried himself to sleep and devoted all of his earnings to the family of the man he killed deserved to be portrayed as a total asshole in a movie, in the end just to make a buck. That's pretty fucking low, if you ask me.
As much as Braddock was supposedly a hero for the common man, so was Baer for the Jewish people.
Don't get me wrong; it was a good movie. But it was manipulative beyond any movie I've ever seen, and the slanderous liberties they took with historical figures makes me sick.
