The Movie That Made Me Cry... T_T

"Cinderella Man" is a movie based on the life of James J. Braddock. The film takes place during the Great Depression. Jim (played by actor Russell Crowe), like many fathers in the 1930s, doesn't make enough money to support his family. In this scene, the heat was turned off in his apartment in winter because he couldn't pay the gas company. His kids are becoming sick due to the cold weather and lack of heat. He needs $18.38 to pay for heating and a livable home for his wife and kids. What choice does he have? I hate this scene, but I highly recommend this film. >.<

I think he is really strong because he tried to do his best as a father. He really seems to love his family. I haven't seen yet but I'd like to watch this:)
