GIRLFIGHT - DVD MovieFirst-time director Karyn Kusama tells a simple but compelling story of a young woman in Brooklyn whose violent impulses in school, and her tendency to physicalize her anger, lead her to train as a boxer. Her trainer at first puts her off, but the combination of her desire and her physical prowess changes his mind. As played by Michelle Rodriguez, Diane is a scowling lightning rod for sudden violence who discovers that she can find a sense of personal grace in boxing--in the training and in the honing of skills--that seems to spill ove! r into her daily life, despite the disapproval of an abusive father. Kusama isn't telling a new story here, but she tells a familiar one with a sense of passion and pride in the uncharted territory this represents for women. Though a romantic subplot seems almost tacked on as an afterthought--Diane must box the boy she loves--Girlfight is engaging and even touching. -Marshall Fine

"You're nothing but trouble..."
"You'll never amount to anything..."

YOU WILL PROVE THEM WRONG

Nothing comes easy for Diana Guzman. She's in trouble at school, her father underestimates her, and her friends are few. Then, in a gritty Brooklyn gym, she discovers the secret world of boxing. Day by day, as she trains in secret, she finds an outlet for all her anger, energy, and frustration. And Adrian, a handsome young boxer with dreams of his own, is soon part of the attraction.

Now Diana is feeling something new -- confidence, pride, respect. She's standing ! a little bit taller, and in the blood, sweat, and roar of the ! ring, sh e's going the distance. But the cost of winning may be the love she has just begun to taste...Director Karyn Kusama's independent film about a female boxer finding her footing in the male boxing world was a significant hit at the Sundance and Cannes film festivals. Its soundtrack traces an urban groove through many permutations, focusing on Latin hip-hop. There's the positive message of newcomer Cole, a South Bronx singer who's teamed up with guest rapper Queen Latifah and producer Dallas Austin for "I Can Do Too." There's the tough-street side of "Project Party," by MC Cuban Link, featuring Sunkiss; the pulsing bravado of "Unstoppable," by Remy Martin; and the carefully layered vocal attack of Fat Joe. Settling things down a bit is a brand new track from Grammy Winner Carlos Santana, whose "Olympic Festival" serves as the celebratory calm in the eye of the storm, and Theodore Shapiro's ambient "Tropicana," a sampler of the movie's instrumental score. --Rob O'Connor F! irst-time director Karyn Kusama tells a simple but compelling story of a young woman in Brooklyn whose violent impulses in school, and her tendency to physicalize her anger, lead her to train as a boxer.
