Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) is a struggling Philadelphia boxer who is scorned by his gym's owner, patronized by a loan shark and rebuffed by a shy pet store cashier (Talia Shire). But everything changes for the “Italian Stallion” when heavyweight champion Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) comes up with a gimmick to give a title shot to the down-on-his-luck brawler. The film went on to win the Academy Award for Best Picture. Then again, so did Driving Miss Daisy.
