Rocky (1976, Dir. John G. Avildsen)
A small time boxer who goes by the name of Rocky Balboa (Stallone) has a huge change of life without being prepared for it. As well as meeting the love of his life, Adrian (Shire), Rocky is also given the chance to participate in a bout against the heavyweight champion, Apollo Creed (Weathers).
Wonderful story acted perfectly by Stallone. Don't let the boxing aspect put you off, as this is a film with heart and will easily inspire many people to achieve their goals. Has helped to create an iconic star, an iconic character and an iconic theme.
Mr Gazzo wants the 200 now.  Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone)
