little idea

"You have the talent to be a great boxer, but you're helping a second-rate loan shark beat people to collect money." "That's just life." "No, it's a waste of your life." My legs are no longer flexible, and I'm getting old , but I still mind, mind being a loser as people say, mind a game that can't be won at all. No miracles, I know I'm going to lose, it doesn't matter if I lose, if I can play the full court, when the bell remembers, I'm still on the court, and for the first time in my life, I'll understand one thing: I'll never again Not a loser. Throw a fist at life, yes, he is each of us.

    A very special and detailed movie, completely beyond my genre imagination. A person who likes to talk to himself, a frustrated person who is not completely motivated, suddenly reminds me of Jia Zhangke's "Xiao Wu". This character is written too far and away from the sword, not to mention the shy heroine and her perverse Brother. Completely separated from the filming of the stereotyped boxing film, it does not focus on the sport itself, but entangles the powerlessness, anxiety, doubt, and loss of an era and a city. The cutting into the main topic is extremely slow and subtle, with blurred emotions paving the way for a boxing match that lasts only ten minutes, and each punch is not as powerful as the last shout to the lover. He didn't want to win, but not to fall—another kind of victory, and he did more than that. This is the unique "Rocky", which was born four years earlier than "Angry Bull". Stallone innovated and even ended boxing "inspirational movies" in the 1970s. Since then, there is a figure floating in Philadelphia Square in the early morning forever.

    The skating section, the section where the master asked him to be a manager, the section where he went to the stadium alone before the game... They were all too exciting, and both were painful romances.

Rocky quotes

  • Rocky: Yeah, the morning after a fight, you're like a large wound, you know what I mean? Sometimes I got pains all over me. I feel like calling a taxi to take me from the bed into the bathroom.

  • Apollo Creed: Come here, Rock. My main man. Rocky, ain't you Italian?

    Rocky: Yeah, I'm Italian.

    TV Commentator: Now what does that mean?

    Apollo Creed: That means, if he can't fight, I'll bet he can cook.
