Million Dollar Baby is a 2004 American sports drama film directed, co-produced, scored, and starring Clint Eastwood, based on short stories by F.X. Toole, the pen name of fight manager and cutman Jerry Boyd, and based on a screenplay written by Paul Haggis. Morgan Freeman and Hilary Swank also star in the film.
The story is about Margaret "Maggie" Fitzgerald is an Ozarks waitress who turns up at the Hit Pit, a run-down Los Angeles gym owned and maintained by Frankie Dunn. Dunn is a grumpy Irish-American trainer who has just announced that he is estranged from his daughter. Maggie asks Frankie to coach her, but he declines since he doesn't train women and Maggie is too elderly to start boxing. Frankie's buddy and coworker, Eddie "Scrap-Iron" Dupris, who also serves as the film's narrator, supports and assists Maggie.
