A Boston Weekend

This past weekend I saw "The Fighter," starring Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale.  It centers around the career of Mickey Ward, a boxer from Lowell, Massachusetts and the complicated relationship with his family.  Instead of just focusing on his boxing career, the movie really focused on Mickey's brother, Dickey.  Dickey was the older brother and was once a boxer but stumbled upon a heavy addiction to crack cocaine and alcohol that jeopardizes Mickey's future.  Overall I was really impressed and would definitely watch it again.
