Moving scene from "Rocky Balboa" (2006) directed by Sylvester Stallone. Starring: Sylvester Stallone as "Rocky" Burt Young as "Paulie" Music: Mickey's Theme
"You know...sometimes it's hard to breathe... I feel like there's this beast inside me" Makes me want to cry every time...breaks my damn heart. Heck of a scene.
This scene is so powerful. Sly really went all-in with this film. This film features some of the most heartfelt and most passionately acted films. Sly should've received an oscar nomination that year.
Paulie is a hater and ungrateful mean prick bastard who was really a burden and useless throughout the whole series. Even if he is being real in this scene but overall, he's exactly what I said. I think it was rocky 3 when the bitch was getting wasted and mad at life cuz he didn't achieve anything and he was trying to fight rocky. Then rocky had to tell him that he had nobody to blame but himself for not achieving shit in life. I had a friend just like Paulie and some cousin's like that. Guess what, I'm glad I got rid of them. I been happier since. Who needs envious shitty people in their lives. Paulie also made rocky broke and treated Adrian bad. Fuck Paulie!
This scene from the movie was unforgettable and very emotional. The beast that was inside Rocky was a combination of grief and anger. For him loosing Adrian was difficult because she was such a big part of who he is, her love and unconditional support gave him the strength and power to win those fights. When a loved one dies the pain is unbearable but as long as you keep them in your heart the memories will always stay alive.
As he put it, "We fill gaps." To lose someone who has completed you and who you are for almost thirty years? I can't begin to imagine that kind of hurt. So when he goes on to say "I didn't know it was supposed to be this hard. It wasn't supposed to be like this." I lose it every time.
Sylvester Stallone was overlooked at the 2006 Oscars for his excellent script for Rocky Balboa. This scene is also proof that with the right material that suits him, Sly can act! This is one of the best scenes in all of the Rocky movies. Rocky is all heart...
I really cried watching this..So good old times,old movies,old moments,this scene reminds me of so many things,we all can be champions but in the end we'll be just like Rocky,dead inside without doing what we love the most..
Man I remember watching this in the theater when it came out after I had gotten back from over seas because my father had passed. And I saw it with an old female friend of mine that have never seen me cry or anything, but when this part came out and paulie says "Are you mad cause Adrian left you?" "She didn't leave paulie, she died" My heart sank Then the crying monologue happens and I just lost it.
I can understand why Rocky feels like this. Sometimes I feel the same way. You want to do something meaningful before your time is up, yet life gets in the way.
This movie had so many great scenes. This one, you really get to see Rocky as raw as possible. Just missing Adrian and wanting to fight again. Such a good scene.
I am a die-hard Rocky fan and a die-hard fan of Sylvester Stallone. I have had a crush on him since I was 12 years old'. He's a brilliant human being in every which way humanly possible. Moe power to him and all his movies, especially the Rocky's.:-)
Awww he is a softy, everyone thinks his horrible and mean because his strong and big his not rockys a softy and such a loving character I'm so glad Sly wrote the character the way he did, all the rockys got me into Sly and I have most of his DVDs, Sly is my inspiration and watching his films has helped me through so much. So thank you Sly and thanks for writing inspirational films, and thanks for telling kids like me never give up always believe. I love the way now he is doing adverts for itv he is just one of the best actors that has ever lived he is such a nice actor and every kid wiv a dream should look up to him. This man is a legend!!!!!
ten years later and my life is still at this point...this beast never go away, it's always worst every day and every year and in every situation. it's hard and nothing seems to be helpful
The very best heartfelt music in the Rocky franchise, makes me cry every time. I think we can all relate to a moment in our lives where we can hear this music playing.
nobody ever understood why i love rocky balboa so much. it was his drive, his determination, most of all..it was his heart. generosity and so much love and understanding. i'll be so lucky to be remembered in that light
That's a masterpiece in acting I'm not a man who cries at funerals or at all but this got me. Probably all those years of being told your not a real actors actor built up and then realised in this epic sceane.. love Stallone
Sly can def act. The end of the 1st Rambo movie was amazing. He's also got tons of gut wrenching scenes in the Rocky franchise. Ppl don't give him a chance bc he's muscular & he's got the issue with his lip/jaw (which he was born with) ... sure, he's got tons of over the top scenes to his credit, but that shouldn't hide the fact that when it comes to making real connections with ppl though his characters, the man is great.
Funny thing is when Sly first came on to the scene a lot of people thought he was gonna be another DeNiro or an actor that was gonna be a great dramatic actor example lords of Flatbush, paradise alley but he wound up doing more of the action actor but the guy could still always bring a dramatic scene to a movie that could make you shed a tear
it's great to see another side of sly he has always played the hard ass with blood and guts with Rambo and outher movie's were he smashing things it's good acting on his part to see him tear up....I know a lot people always makes fun of him and knock him but I think he is a great actor.....
I love the Rocky movies not for the fighting but for what life is about, it's not easy even for people that make it big, they also have a lot of issues which is what comes with money, when I have a bad week myself I put on a Rocky movie
It's amazing that with all the renowned poets, authors and muscians no one has come as close as Stallone in capturing my emotions. I lose it everytime when he says "sometimes it's hard to breathe. Like this beast inside of me" " It's ok, Rocco." " Is it?"
When you fight so hard when you are younger and you take it for granted. Hitting a goal that seems important only to learn later in life it isn't. But what is left... It is the things in the basement.
I love it...I just feel like there is gotta be more to life than living, im just tired of living life, nothing impress me anymore..a whole new day but same old thing, wonder when i get my peace.
my fiance who i love so much has left me and its my fault and i thought i was the only one who feels like i cant breathe literly, y does love has to hurt so much
0:54 I think that Paulie is fully awear that Adrian is dead but is still haunted that his only sister is gone. In a deleted scene paulie is mourning for Adrian and says he misses her which shows that he still fully remembers her but doesn’t want to let that out. Ironically paulie has one of the best character development
He felt guilty even being with Rocky when they visit her grave. He sad as much "You treated her good!", he knows how bad he treated her, he felt unworthy of mourning her, his only sister.
"she didnt leave Paulie, she died".... i know this is a powerful scene and isnt supposed to be funny, but the way Rocky says "she died" i laugh every time
goodbye Polly. I got choked up when rocky visits Adrian and Polly. I just let the waterworks flow when rocky needs help to climb those stairs in the end.
You know i find the various struggles Rocky encounters in all the films so relate-able to, its something i can understand as an average Joe. Oscar awards are mostly given to all these actors that play artsy fartsy roles that only the wealthy seem to relate to or care about. Thats why i rarely take the oscars seriously, for rich people by rich people. I really hope Stallone wins for Creed since for once a character than I actually can relate to gets recognised.
I feel sorry for anyone who can't appreciate this movie, honestly.
Django.It's Probably A Bunch Of DUMB ASSES. Looking For Attention.
Who are you... Go away you sad little man
Conan O'Brien wants to know your location...
Jordan Schlansky I can very much tbh I ain’t looking for pity just saying
Go back to work
"You know...sometimes it's hard to breathe... I feel like there's this beast inside me"
Makes me want to cry every time...breaks my damn heart. Heck of a scene.
My hearts breaks. I pray I never have to feel that experience.
Paul Gaviria You will everyone will
William Brown how so?
Daniel Cetina you'll see
This scene is so powerful. Sly really went all-in with this film. This film features some of the most heartfelt and most passionately acted films. Sly should've received an oscar nomination that year.
people think Paulie's an asshole, but he's a realist.
also, go for the one in the middle.
Paulie is a hater and ungrateful mean prick bastard who was really a burden and useless throughout the whole series. Even if he is being real in this scene but overall, he's exactly what I said. I think it was rocky 3 when the bitch was getting wasted and mad at life cuz he didn't achieve anything and he was trying to fight rocky.

I been happier since. Who needs envious shitty people in their lives. Paulie also made rocky broke and treated Adrian bad. Fuck Paulie!
Paulie WAS an asshole before but in this movie he has changed into a good guy.
Maybe too much
always get the feels in this scene...when Rocko's voice cracks, yeah it gets me
Best. Keep it going Rocky. One of my fav all time characters. Heroes get remembered but Legends never die.
"What, you haven't peaked yet??"
One of the best line of the series 😂
This scene from the movie was unforgettable and very emotional. The beast that was inside Rocky was a combination of grief and anger. For him loosing Adrian was difficult because she was such a big part of who he is, her love and unconditional support gave him the strength and power to win those fights.

RIP Paulie.
I feel he was the biggest asshole through the whole rocky franchise
Love it. One of the greatest cinematic characters ever created. Never fails to inspire me. Can never stop watching it when it’s on.
Sylvester Stallone was overlooked at the 2006 Oscars for his excellent script for Rocky Balboa. This scene is also proof that with the right material that suits him, Sly can act!
This is one of the best scenes in all of the Rocky movies. Rocky is all heart...

A&F Vlog combat vet here.. Same way brother.

Stallone was robbed of the Oscar for this. He should of won for Creed as well.
AMERICAN ICON SINCE 1978 ...STALLONE GAVE US A PEOPLES CHAMPION AND HERO....THANXXX SLY LNR
Awww he is a softy, everyone thinks his horrible and mean because his strong and big his not rockys a softy and such a loving character I'm so glad Sly wrote the character the way he did, all the rockys got me into Sly and I have most of his DVDs, Sly is my inspiration and watching his films has helped me through so much.

The very best heartfelt music in the Rocky franchise, makes me cry every time. I think we can all relate to a moment in our lives where we can hear this music playing.
I feel bad for everyone Rocky's lost
nobody ever understood why i love rocky balboa so much. it was his drive, his determination, most of all..it was his heart. generosity and so much love and understanding. i'll be so lucky to be remembered in that light
one off the best scene out of all 6 films .rocky gives me hope.
That's a masterpiece in acting I'm not a man who cries at funerals or at all but this got me. Probably all those years of being told your not a real actors actor built up and then realised in this epic sceane.. love Stallone
Une des plus belle scène de se film
J ai toujours une larmes devant se passage
She didn't leave paul,she died gets me every time.
Stallone Underrated actor!!! best in dramatic scenes
Sly can def act. The end of the 1st Rambo movie was amazing. He's also got tons of gut wrenching scenes in the Rocky franchise. Ppl don't give him a chance bc he's muscular & he's got the issue with his lip/jaw (which he was born with) ... sure, he's got tons of over the top scenes to his credit, but that shouldn't hide the fact that when it comes to making real connections with ppl though his characters, the man is great.

by far stallone's best acting performance, award worthy.
This is one of the emotional films I’ve ever seen. My favourite rocky movie
Rest in peace Burt... Thank you for everything...
One of the greatest scenes in film history, period.
it's great to see another side of sly he has always played the hard ass with blood and guts with Rambo and outher movie's were he smashing things it's good acting on his part to see him tear up....I know a lot people always makes fun of him and knock him but I think he is a great actor.....
This scene is a masterpiece... pure and simple...
best scene i ever watched !! men tears are not easy to fall
I love the Rocky movies not for the fighting but for what life is about, it's not easy even for people that make it big, they also have a lot of issues which is what comes with money, when I have a bad week myself I put on a Rocky movie
This tears can break a stone into two pieces...😢
It always makes me cry every time I watch it.
It's amazing that with all the renowned poets, authors and muscians no one has come as close as Stallone in capturing my emotions. I lose it everytime when he says "sometimes it's hard to breathe. Like this beast inside of me" " It's ok, Rocco." " Is it?"
It's about how much you can take and keep moving forward....
This was some good shit. Stallone never got the credit he deserved as an actor.
Damn these onion cutting ninjas.
Man I love all rocky movies but I cant watch this one without crying through the whole movie
the whole film put a lump in my throat great end to a great series.
beautiful scene..nearly ruined by needless shaky cam
Superb acting from both
I just love this scene...
How can people say Stallone cant act? Christ his performance here is as raw and real as it gets.
When you fight so hard when you are younger and you take it for granted. Hitting a goal that seems important only to learn later in life it isn't. But what is left... It is the things in the basement.
when sly goes a part of me will to.the mans got it all i love him
awesome story we grew up watching them too.
this movie is inspirational. heart moving it should taught in motivation management courses, if there is something called this way!!
Powerful acting by Sly Stallone. One of the most emotional scenes in the movie
Breaks my heart this scene
STALLONE WAS A GREAT ACTOR, JUST LOOK AT THE MOVIES HE MADE, EVERYONE A BLOCKBUSTER,..

God bless you Rocko..
Heartbreaking moment!
Paulie should have said "You somehow got cured of brain damage and improved your finances enough to own a restaurant. Count your blessings."
Stallone's the best actor of the century, not the worst!!!!!!!
0:54 I think that Paulie is fully awear that Adrian is dead but is still haunted that his only sister is gone. In a deleted scene paulie is mourning for Adrian and says he misses her which shows that he still fully remembers her but doesn’t want to let that out.

He felt guilty even being with Rocky when they visit her grave. He sad as much "You treated her good!", he knows how bad he treated her, he felt unworthy of mourning her, his only sister.
We love you rock!

Paulie reminds me of my uncle
Rocky Balboa inspired me to lose weight. Dropped my BMI from 32 to 28 so far....

"she didnt leave Paulie, she died".... i know this is a powerful scene and isnt supposed to be funny, but the way Rocky says "she died" i laugh every time

You know i find the various struggles Rocky encounters in all the films so relate-able to, its something i can understand as an average Joe.

the 66 people who disliked this are not part of humanity
Me too i always cry like a damn baby
The stuff in the basement disliked this video.
Acts better than 99% of actors today
As an Iraq Vet....This is exactly how I live.
RIP Paulie
