Million Dollar Baby, the best film of 2004!

Rating: 10/10 (2 August 2007)

Clint Eastwood won his second best directing Oscar and his second Best Picture Oscar with Million Dollar Baby which was not only his best film since Unforgiven, but it's a lot better than Mystic River.
Million Dollar Baby is not about boxing, but about the characterization of three characters and the struggles that they face in the boxing ring.
With films like Million Dollar Baby, Unforgiven, Flags of Our Fathers, and of course, the best picture nominated Letters from Iwo Jima, Clint Eastwood continues to prove that not only is he one of the most iconic American actors in history, but that he had the tenacity and courage to leave his western image behind to become one of America's best directors of all time. His craft will be remembered for generations.
Winner of four 2004 Academy awards, Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, and Best Supporting Actor.
