Million dollar baby
Frankie Dunn is a punching coach which has never made it with his charges up to a tall title. There is an example at once at the beginning of the film that the potential given by Frankie to its pupils absolutely suffices to win titles, though. In addition, it is shown that Frankie takes seriously his roll as a manager very much and is not out for the fast money.
Frankie has a daughter him, with which contact which is, however, declined on the part of the daughter looks what proves only in the course of the film, though although. When Maggie Fitzgerald, a waitress living in poor conditions who dreams of becoming professional Boxerin, asks him to exercise her, at first Frankie declines this since she is too old with 31 years to still go in into the professional business. In addition, he wouldn't exercise any women.
Scrap, the janitor of Frankie's punching studio, looks after Maggies after that and gives her tips and training material regularly. Since Maggie doesn't let up, Frankie finally takes on the training of Maggie under different conditions. It is a condition that Maggie is looking for a manager and that Frankie wouldn't further look after her after her entering into the professional business. Approximately here it also turns out that Frankie "Scrap" looked in the fight when Scrap has lost its eye. Frankie wanted to stop the fight, however, couldn't do it since this one didn't fill out a necessary function him to this. Because of this experience Frankie shuns himself, to organize great fights for his charges in future.
Maggie's first fight with the new manager gets difficult for her since her manager doesn't give her tactical help. Frankie who was actually present only as a spectator on the platform with "Scrap" interferes and with his help Maggie finally wins the fight. Frankie thus so becomes the manager of Maggie and takes on its training again, too. It then adds, from Maggie to further fights this one this wins without problems in the first round. Because of this fact Frankie has increasingly difficulties in organizing new fights for Maggie. He finally has Maggie begun in the weight category next above. Maggie wins after initial difficulties also this fight, if also only in the second round. After half a year Maggie is ready to begin the World Cup in Las Vegas. Frankie hesitates, however, she isn't ready yet and can seriously come to damage in a professional fight. Maggie takes him along to her nut living on welfare after that, what convinces him to let her begin in Las Vegas in the end anyway. On the way home the two go to a small restaurant, this Maggie knows childhood from her, which Frankie impressed so that he plays with the thought buying it.
