When one F.X. Toole adaptation grabs a bunch of Oscars, what will happen to the next one?
Million Dollar Baby -- winner of Best Movie, Director, Supporting Actor, and Lead Actress -- was adapted from Toole's short story collection Rope Burns: Stories from the Corner, and now The Hollywood Reporter posts that Pound for Pound is getting the big-screen indie treatment with the starring help of Billy Bob Thornton.
A full -- but unfinished -- posthumous novel this time around, Pound follows Dan Cooley, an ex-boxing contender who has outlived both his wife and children, and focuses on his grandson, who then gets killed. "As Cooley vacillates between booze-fueled suicidal thoughts and fantasies of homicidal vengeance, Hispanic teenager Eduardo 'Chicky' Garza y Duffy begins his troubled ascent in the amateur boxing world." In classic sports movie form, they will be able to offer each other redemption.

I.d give anything for that to end up being the title of Billy Bob Thornton.s next movie, which according to THR will be a boxing movie based on a novel from the author of Million Dollar Baby. The book is called Pound for Pound, so odds are that will be the title, but I.m going to keep right on rooting for Boxing Billy Bob. The book.s author, F.X. Toole died before completing it, and was then released posthumously even though somewhat unfinished. It.s about a widowed boxer and contender named Dan Cooley, dealing with depression as his only remaining relative, his grandson, is killed in a car accident. In parallel the book tells the story of an up and coming Latino fighter whose life intersects with Cooley.s in ...
