CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Rocky’s (Sylvester Stallone) intense training pays off as he ascends the steps and overlooks the City of Brotherly Love.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone), a Philadelphia boxer, is but one step removed from total bum-hood. A once-promising pugilist, Rocky is now taking nickel-and-dime bouts and running strongarm errands for local loan sharks to survive. Even his supportive trainer, Mickey (Burgess Meredith), has given up on Rocky. All this changes thanks to Muhammad Ali-like super-boxer Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers). With the Bicentennial celebration coming up, Creed must find a “Cinderella” opponent for the big July 4th bout — some unknown whom Creed can “glorify” for a few minutes before knocking him cold. Rocky Balboa was not the only Cinderella involved here: writer/director Sylvester Stallone, himself a virtual unknown, managed to sell his Rocky script (one of 35 that he’d written over the years) on the proviso that he be given the starring role. Since the film was to be made on a shoestring and marketed on a low-level basis, the risk factor to United Artists was small. For Stallone, this was a make-or-break opportunity — just like Rocky’s million-to-one shot with Apollo Creed. Costing under a million dollars, Rocky managed to register with audiences everywhere, earning back 60 times its cost. The film won several Academy Awards, including Best Picture.

  1. Fun fact: The shot at 2:25 is reversed. You may be able to tell by the way the wrinkles on his pants move. They chose to reverse it because they originally shot the camera zooming out, but they changed their minds in post and wanted it to zoom in on him.

  2. I get goosebumps when Rocky runs up the steps of the Art museum! The best scene! I used to go to the Philadelphia art museum with my family as a kid!

  3. Saw a little known fact video about this scene stating that when he was dancing at the top of the steps, they reversed the shot so the camera would be zooming in. Came back to see if it was true. Was not disappointed 🙂

  4. Was just at the Philadelphia museum of art for the first time. Ran up those steps with my 9 year old daughter and jumped around like Rocky when we got to the top. Amazing how many people were doing the same and playing Gonna Fly Now from their phones. In 2021. This movie touched a lot of people.
