This article describes a number of things including: Audience reception of Rocky as a classic underdog story, Alvidsen’s acceptance speech for Best Director at the 1977 Oscar Awards, comparisons between Stallone and Marlon Brando, to a moderately long biography of Stallone’s life. Kasindorf’s opinion of Stallone’s acting contrasts with New York Times critic Vincent Camby, showing that Stallone’s acting was well received by some within the critics’ circle. By D. Goldstein
