"Rocky": Everyone has a dream

This is not an impetuous movie. Every scene and every detail of it is so exquisite, showing the skill of the screenwriter. Unbelievably, this is actually a book written by Stallone in three days. I have to praise it. .

I have always believed that a good movie will show its quality from the first minute, such as "Rocky". From the opening boxing match, to the locker room after the match, to the street where Rocky goes home, the director is very attentive to the depiction of every detail and the creation of the scene, and Rocky always likes to throw a tennis ball in his hand. Throwing away this detail makes the character's character more plump.

What I admire most is the narrative method of the whole movie. Most of the time, the director always calmly confessed the plot without any emotion, but wanted the audience to experience it by himself, and appreciate Rocky’s compromise with reality and desire for dreams. , The straightforwardness of love.

It can be imagined that a talented person has to endure the loneliness that no one values ​​his talents for six years, and endure the helplessness of having to help people collect debts in order to live (fortunately the employer is not a bad person), this is What a pain. Although the film wants to tell people that in the United States, you can succeed by seizing any opportunity, but without your own efforts, even if the opportunity comes, it is useless. Although Rocky's life is mediocre, he has always had dreams in his heart. He doesn't want to succeed, he just has been waiting for an opportunity.

In fact, for Rocky’s girlfriend, isn’t she waiting for an opportunity, she also longs for love, she also longs for free association with others, but most of them think she is an incompetent, even her brother thinks she is a The "loser" in life, Rocky's love gave her confidence, and she made Yeluoqi feel the warmth of love. When the film ended, Rocky persisted to the end of the game, he kept calling her name, yes For Rocky, the result of the game is not important, what is important is that he has recovered himself and realized his value.

The brother of Rocky’s girlfriend is also a very interesting role. He works in a pork factory, but has always wanted to change a job like Rocky to help people collect debts. For this reason, he begged Rocky several times, but Rocky didn’t. Promise him, it made him very angry, he always complained that his sister was running away from life, in fact, he himself was too.

The coach of Rocky, on the surface, is a "profit-seeking" guy, but he also has his invaluable points, at least from the strict requirements for Rocky's training.

The theme of this movie is boxing, and then the plot is really related to boxing. Except for the beginning, it is the battle in the last 20 minutes of the film. It can be seen that what the director and screenwriter really want to talk about is how a man with a dream catches it. The opportunity to realize the value of life step by step. In short, this film is indeed a classic inspirational movie.
