A Novice Watches Rocky (1976)
I’d never seen the original 1976 Rocky in the past, because it seemed to be a “boxing” movie, and watching people hit each other into a bloody mess has never been my bag. Somewhere along the line I watched Rocky III, which was a decent enough film. It was sad and then triumphant. But I…

I think that it is fairly well known that films aren’t usually shot in the order that they unroll onscreen. They try and film as much as they can with the minimum of disruption. If a character has to appear in a particular costume or make up for a few different scenes then it is…
