14 years ago today: Million Dollar Baby wins 4 Academy Awards

On this day in 2005, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences 77th awards ceremony was held (also known as the "Oscars"). The movie "Million Dollar Baby" won 4 Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Director (Eastwood), Best Supporting Actor (Freeman), and Best Actress (Swank).

"Million Dollar Baby" is a 2004 American sports drama film directed, co-produced, and scored by Clint Eastwood, and starring Eastwood, Hilary Swank, and Morgan Freeman. This film is about an underappreciated boxing trainer (Frankie Dunn, played by Eastwood), the mistakes that haunt him from his past, and his quest for atonement by helping an underdog amateur boxer (Maggie Fitzgerald, played by Hilary Swank) achieve her dream of becoming a professional.

Vid shows a scene with Morgan Freeman in his role as Eddie "Scrap-Iron" Dupris, the gym assistant and elderly former boxer, who was blinded in one eye in his 109th, and last, fight. In the scene, Scrap is purposely distracted to leave the gym, so that Shawrelle can take advantage of "Dangerous Dillard Flippo Bam-Bam Barch", a simple minded would-be boxer.
