Rocky (1976)| Director: | John G. Avildsen | | Cast: | Sylvester Stallone, Talia Shire, Burt Young, Carl Weathers and Burgess Meredith |
Stallone's intense portrayal of the punk fighter with a once-in-a-lifetime shot at the world heavyweight title carried this classic rags-to-ringside tale to a Best Picture Oscar and four sequels and handily established Sly's star power.
