Talent and struggle in the quagmire

All the classic sections in this film, released in 1976, were ridiculed, imitated, and tributed by latecomers, and became familiar stories. When I followed the impression of latecomers, I thought I would drink a bowl of inspirational chicken soup that was often said to be funny, but I was hit by a movie with humanistic care.
The pace of the movie is relatively slow, and there are only a handful of climaxes. It is not like a big-selling commercial film, and I finally understand why Stallone was rejected so many times. However, it was moved inexplicably, the blood rose, and he sighed.
This is an emotion that is incomprehensible in the student days-when you were a student, as long as you work hard, you will find out as long as you work hard; but when you come to society, the struggle is not fruitful and it is nothing.
The first half of the movie depicts a quagmire of low-level life, and the characters may be portrayed as lifelike because of Stallone's personal experience.
I always hear that this is a counterattack by a small person. Rocky is the representative of this small person. After watching the movie, I realized that Rocky or Stallone gathered everyone’s attention. However, the reason why this movie can move people’s hearts , Not only because of Stallone, but also those little people.
Gazzo is a second-rate gang among the population, lending usury to earn a living, Rocky's employer. But he is not a bad guy. He funded Rocky and usually takes care of Rocky. What kind of character is he? It can only be said of ordinary people, ordinary people only appeared in a few scenes and then passed.
Gazzo's drivers don't know why they can't get along with Rocky, but maybe as Gazzo said, some people just don't look right, and there is no reason.
Mickey is the owner of the boxing gym. I still can't forget the bridge he walked to Rocky's room. An old man with a dying wind and a brave old gym owner wanted to put his face down and beg for a lucky guy. That kind of embarrassment and unwillingness are mixed together, and the expression that shines from time to time when he talks about his glorious past.
And Rocky's friend Paulie, a butcher who is tired of pork, is a good friend. When he heard Rocky say that he was incompetent and didn't know what he wanted from him, his anger and unwillingness were so moving.
Like the bar owner said, don’t I work hard? However, life is like a quagmire. You can't find the villain in the novel to be your opponent, and you don't use such a cruel heart to be a villain. You can only slowly sink into the bottom of the Tan, and watch yourself rot.
The arrogant boxing champion found Rocky as his opponent. This opportunity is not only for Rocky, but also for these people, because this is a living legend happening around him, who would take it leisurely.
Didn't Rocky know this was just a show? Wouldn't these ordinary people know that a boxing match scheduled for Thanksgiving is just an entertainment show?
But it's useless. People at the bottom never perform and will only give you a real punch.
