"Warner Brothers has been accused of deliberately concealing the film's ending in its promotions."
Thanks for posting this. I was surprised to learn that there was a depressing twist to this movie that causes it to end on a very dark note. Of course the review I read didn't reveal what that twist was. I think the ads are very misleading. I am opposed to movies without happy endings, and even though I was opposed to this one because it glorifies female boxing I thought maybe it was a good movie and I was misjudging it. Sorry to be right, yet again.
You want a REALLY controversial movie??
(I suppose this should be from scrappleface. . .)
Make a movie in which a pregnant woman decides at
the last moment NOT to have an abortion. . .
then show the life of the child who lived (instead of being killed)
Now THAT would be radical.
(But of course it's TOO radical and challenging for Hollywood. . .)
There was no way to advertise that element of the film without giving the ending away.
