The boxer


The Boxer is a 1997 film by Irish director Jim Sheridan. Starring Daniel Day-Lewis and Emily Watson, the film centers on the life of a boxer and former Provisional IRA Volunteer, Danny Flynn, played by Day-Lewis, who has just been released from prison. He attempts to "go straight", starting a boxing club for young people in his neighborhood and trying to reconnect with an old flame, played by Watson, but his past always seems to be catching up with him.
