How Conti did not get nominated for Best Score for ROCKY is one of the oddest things in Oscar history. The song "Gonna Fly Now" was nominated but NOT the score. Not many movies in motion picture history had a score as important to the film as Conti's was to that one.
ONLY 23 COMMENTS in 4 YEARS? 🧐 I was just sitting on the toilet - one place I often get inspiration, and the thought came to me, “Look up how the theme for Rocky was written!”
Wonderful music. Wonderful woman. I love to see the real deal of women succeeding instead of when women are handed easy victories. She's the real deal.

Let’s face it great movie good acting fun story ( though alittle farfetched) but it’s that song that catapulted this to best picture. It’s so raw so authentic just captivates you

*Someone please tell me why "Evergreen (Theme from A Star Is Born)" beat "Gonna Fly Now" in Best Original Song again?*
Because. More lyrics and more effeminate mush
Someone had a charmed life.
I came here because I watched the video of the guy standing up and getting on his atv while cops struggle to stop him and onlookers stare.
Shut up....lol.....Carolllllllllll.....muak🥰
I'm so early...
oh wait, nobody cares.
The music is awesome the lyrics are god awful.
"He's got a Sunday Punch that will put you into Monday" what is the song she is referring to here?
