We all know who Muhamed Ali was, there is no doubt about it. He was one of the greatest boxers who ever lived. But there were times when he was at the beginning of his journey, when he was still pretty young. "Muhamed Ali's Greatest Fight" is the story about one of the many great fights he's had during his life- a fight for his right. After requesting to be excepted from serving the army and fighting in the war in 1964, basing on his religion and beliefs, Muhamed Ali was denied that right. And so began one of his greatest fights for everything that justice system has spoken about- equality and justice for both black and white men. Unfortunately, he was unanimously convicted and sentenced for 5 years of imprisonment, because he refused to fight in a war. As that same case gets to the Supreme court, the judges decide to uphold the already given conviction. Will they manage to overturn the conviction and persuade the rest of the jury that it's the right thing to do? With the acting crew that involves talented academy award winners Christopher Plummer, Fritz Weaver, Frank Langella, and Benjamin Walker, the director of "The Queen" and Academy award nominee Stephen Frears has made a spectacular film adaptation based on true historic events for the resent past.
