On the Set of 'The Fighter' with Wahlberg and Adams
Monday, November 2, 2009 at 9:35AM
Amy Adams with the take down! That's right: The most pleasant person alive gets in the middle of a cat fight in this clip from The Fighter.

Like most catfights, there's very little real action, and the this video is actually a behind-the-scenes look at filming the clip, which also features Mark Wahlberg - or for these purposes Mahk Wahlbug - and Melissa Leo, an Oscar nominee last year for Frozen River. In fact, of the principal cast, the only non-Academy Award nominee is Christian Bale, and he might be the most singularly talented of the group.
He doesn't factor into this video from the set of David O. Russell's bio-pic of boxer "Irish" Mickey Ward, but I think you can get a sense for the nature of the people involved: Tough, working class, and they probably won't take much of your shit.

We don't have a firm release date for this one just yet. Filming wrapped up a couple months ago, so I guess there's a chance it can do the Sundance rounds for Paramount, but I don't think it really needs to.
