The story of Mancini’s life and legacy is significant and it is well presented with terrific archival clips, photographs, and fight footage along with shrewd observations from Mancini’s childhood friend, actors Mickey Rourke and Ed O’Neill, boxer Sugar Ray Leonard, as well as author Mark Kriegel (who penned the book on which this film is based).
Synopsis: Ray “Boom Boom” Mancini wasn’t merely the lightweight champ. He fought for his father and for those in small towns across America. The Good Son is an intimate history, a saga of fathers and fighters, loss and redemption and finally, forgiveness.
