Adrian! This week I am joined by Christian and we chat about his all time favourite movie Rocky. We deep dive the story of Rocky Balboa, the small-time Philadelphia boxer who gets an unexpected shot at the heavyweight title, and why this underdog tale still hits just as hard today.
We unpack the film’s gritty realism, the iconic training montages, and how Sylvester Stallone’s unlikely rise mirrors the character he created. We also dig into the film’s cultural legacy from inspiring generations of sports movies to becoming a symbol of determination and heart. As Rocky says, “It ain’t about how hard you hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.”
