Gloves of Stone
A doctor (Martin Sheen) and boxing trainers Jimmy (Kirk Harris) and Willie (Michael Madsen) unite to bring out the heart of a champion in a young, poverty-stricken Mexican boxer (Alex Perea).
My takeA gritty underdog story about transformation and belief. When a talented young boxer from poverty meets a doctor and trainers who see his potential, it becomes a story about finding your fight—both in the ring and within yourself. Inspiring without being saccharine.
