Rocky

Rocky
If you've ever been inspired to sprint up the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art or listen to "Eye of the Tiger" during a workout, then you probably know why Rocky is a sports film no woman can resist. A small-town boy realizes his big-time dreams and in the end discovers that the love of a good woman is all he needs. It may not have reinvented the sports movie wheel, but it was original enough to earn it a Best Picture Oscar®. And the ongoing saga of Rocky and Adrian? That was good enough for us.
