ROCKY opens unceremoniously on a tired boxing match, featuring a young and decidedly graceless Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone). From these humble beginnings would spring one of the icons of filmdom.
Train and train and train - and better your physical self - but it all seems kinda dstupid in the end: you're not training to become a perfect phyisical speciimen of a human being to be productive for the human race or for your betterment per se, but to beat up another human being.
who's doing the same thing.
the Running Water theme - married to ROCKY forever.
