Dustin's pick this week is the 1976 Mega Hit Rocky! Rocky is a 1976 American sports drama film directed by John G. Avildsen, written by and starring Sylvester Stallone.[3] It tells the rags to riches American Dream story of Rocky Balboa, an uneducated but kind-hearted working class Italian-American boxer working as a debt collector for a loan shark in the slums of Philadelphia. Rocky, a small-time club fighter, gets a shot at the world heavyweight championship. The film also stars Talia Shire as Adrian, Burt Young as Adrian's brother Paulie, Burgess Meredith as Rocky's trainer Mickey Goldmill, and Carl Weathers as the champion, Apollo Creed. It inspired the 'Let's Build Esker Boxing Club' clubhouse building campaign by Irish boxing Club, Esker ABC several years later. https://www.facebook.com/groups/300274190580137/ @moviesagainst on twitter Leave us a suggestion for the next movie to review.
