Russell (Three Kings), THE FIGHTER has received seven Academy Award nominations including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor (Christian Bale), Best Supporting Actress (Melissa Leo and<br \/>\nAmy Adams), Best Original Screenplay and Best Editing.  The powerful, uplifting and \u201cremarkable\u201d (Wall Street Journal) film tells the story of working-class pugilist \u201cIrish\u201d Micky Ward (Wahlberg) and his against-all-odds triumph in the ring that united his fractured family and brought pride to his blue-collar hometown.
