Movie: Million Dollar Baby

Well done, sad ending

I recorded this to Tivo from HBO several months ago. Last night I finally watched it. It's a great film, very well made and well acted. I was surprised when I realized that Clint Eastwood directed it.

(POSSIBLE SPOILER) It's very worth watching, but does have a sad ending. It also shows a pretty bleak picture of being a quadrapalegic, but perhaps for someone as physical as Hilary Swank's character it makes sense. In contrast, I know a quad who is a happy, successful person despite his limitations. I hope people won't jump to the conclusion that all quads have nothing to live for and want to end their lives.
