Cinderella Man is a 2005 American drama film by Ron Howard, titled after the nickname of heavyweight boxing champion James J. Braddock and inspired by his life story.

He had lost several bouts due to chronic hand injuries and was forced to work on the docks and collect social assistance to feed his family during the Great Depression.

The Great Depression was a severe worldwide economic depression in the 1930s. The timing of the Great Depression varied across nations, but in most countries it started in 1929 and lasted until the late 1930s. It was the longest, deepest, and most widespread depression of the 20th century.

World War I was a global war centred in Europe that began on 28 July 1914 and lasted until 11 November 1918.

The Wall Street Crash of 1929, also known as Black Tuesday, the Great Crash, or the Stock Market Crash of 1929, began in late October 1929 and was the most devastating stock market crash in the history of the United States, when taking into consideration the full extent and duration of its fallout. The crash signaled the beginning of the 10-year Great Depression that affected all Western industrialized countries.

Steel production declined. Construction was sluggish. Automobile sales went down. Consumers were building up high debts because of easy credit.

World War II had a dramatic effect on many parts of the economy, and may have hastened the end of the Great Depression in the United States.

First, there are demand-driven theories, such as Keynesian economics and Institutional economists who argue that the recession was caused by underconsumption and over-investment (thereby causing an economic bubble).
