A
1976 movie starring
Sylvester Stallone,
Talia Shire,
Carl Weathers, and
Burgess Meredith about a boxer (Stallone) who challenges the champion (Weathers) and loses. A great
rags-to-riches tale about making it out of
blue collar Philadelphia.
Famous for the scene where Rocky is jogging up the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum and is jumping and pumping his fists in the air when he gets to the top. Also for the scene where he is punching sides of beef to train. And when he drinks raw eggs. Mmmm.
Won the Academy Award for Best Picture that year. It's a tearjerker
