There's no two actors that were better suited for their roles than Sylvester Stallone and Talia Shire. Their on screen chemistry was both genuine and amazing. The love and commitment that their characters had that had carried over into the sequels is the stuff of movie magic.
Adrian is one of the reasons this movie was so special. She was more than Rocky's wife and cheerleader but his partner that stood by him when he needed it the most and picked him up when he was crumbling to the ground (Rocky III). She's an amazing woman, I don't think any other actress could have done her part better!
one of the best on screen couples ever.I hated that she died in Rocky Balboa.The Rocky saga always gives me chills to this day and they are a big part of my earlier days and won't ever tire of watching them.Hail to the King...Rocky Balboa!!
It was a love story. Stallone has said that Rocky is a movie about Adrian. That Rocky was a bum until he met her and that's when he because a winner. And I love that scene when they first kiss, too. GREAT MOVIE.
Sly may have written Adrian, from his rib as she says - but without her brilliant performance, Adrian would not have been the same character. Without Burgess, the movie is different. Without Burt the movie is quite different, but without Talia I'm not even sure if they have/had a movie. In my mind, she makes the movie and her transformation is nothing short of amazing. With any other actress the movie may have not even succeeded. To me, the best performance by any female in any movie - and that's saying a lot.
I just love his sense of humor....Talia says that it's a great boxing movie and also a love story, I agree but....for me it's a LOVE story first, and then a boxing movie....and I've also watched that love scene a million times....I was 22 the first time I saw Rocky and instantly fell in love with Sylvester, he had the most soulful & sad eyes, just amazing looking...other than the fact of that dirty apartment, it was just wonderful the way they slowly sank to the floor forgetting everything but their passion for each other ~~
+June Lynn Beautifully said. Love Rocky 1 but I'm a sucker for the action flicks so I am more in tune with rocky 3 and 4 but the love was still there. Plus Mr. T ya know.
***** I only liked the first 3 Rocky films...and Rocky Balboa....don't remember much about 4 and I heard 5 was really bad...but I know you guys love action flicks...lol
I'll never forget the last few minutes of Rocky, with them trying to get to each other, embracing and not even caring about the outcome of the fight. One of the greatest love stories ever told, by two of the greatest actors in film
Every man with a pure heart spends half a lifetime hoping to meet an Adrian. A woman blessed with inner and outer beauty, who is loyal and faithful to the end. The first three Rocky movies are absolutely timeless. It was nice to know that he took her in sickness and in health in order to do that first love scene when she had the flu! 👌🙌 🥊 #taliashire is a national treasure. 🍺❤️
the rocky movies are all so beautiful. like talia said they are a love story. not just between sly and adrian, but his passion for everything he did. it was like he was a super human because of his determination and passion, heart . it was very depressing with adrian's absence in rocky balboa, BUT he made rocky balboa to get a message across that he didn't quite get out entirely in the rest of the rocky's. he is so gifted and talia is so very beautiful in personality as well as beauty.! Big Fan!
I have grown to respect and appreciate Sly so much the last forty years. He truly embodies the Rocky character. The man is a beast mentally and physically. He writes, produces, directs, and acts. The man does it all and does it well. He's a real go-getter and never seems to let his career slow down.
All those beatings you took in the ring , i took them with you- speaks volumes about how deep love can be, and talia and Sylvester had deep chemistry where it became more than about fighting it was and always will be about heart and love
111highgh that's awesome. and I'm current in a long relationship with a wonderful man . hint , lol she's a beautiful woman, her race shouldn't be included in your description of your relationship. I wish you all the best.
The 70's and 80's was the best time for hollywood by far. Some amazing movies. Everyone loves the under dog, and all the under dog can give is there best. When that is enough sports can be amazing. No film dramatises the under dog spirit that humans love then rocky. Even though i hate boxing as a port, rocky is great for the story, that we all love, seeing the under dog triumph. In sports there is nothing better, then seeing a massive under dog beat the champion, just by giving everything they have. No one can ask anymore of a person, then giving everything they have. All the under dog has, is that on there side. There is nothing better then seeing a total outsider winning, against all the odds. Even though i hate boxing as a sport, rocky is such a great movie compilation, that it shows that human spirit within humans.
You know whats great about Stallone & Shire, they may not have been in as many movies as most actors these days, but to make just a few magical stories that really inspire people instead of making a bunch of movies that don't really do that, I think thats a way better path to go on in my opinion.
Sylvester stallone went to college in Australia yrs ago if 1976 they interviewed Susan Sarandon, chear ,then Talia Shire walked in and she was the best Sylvester stallone had 106 dollars and in the break of set's they got food out of the trash ,only the one that had fresh food left. Irwin Winkler, and William chatnof liked writing in a spiral notebook. They had to do the movie under a million dollars and rocky one made the biggest franchise in history. Barry shulman.
This is really Down to Earth speaking. Talia and Sly just come out and tell it like it was. They're brief, forthright and don't speak in all these pretentious Hollywood terms. They speak from their hearts and what a gentle humble memory it all was. Sometimes accidents happen for a reason.
Two legends. Sly is the rock and Talia is Adrian. Nuff said. And the rocky movies was a love story. Not just between two people. But a love story for overcoming adversity.
Sylvester is the MAN! He is surprisingly articulate and well spoken and is a really motivating figure even without the Rocky persona! More people should look up to people like him.
i jus saw all the rocky movies this year and i can say i love all of them... the story line the actors... everything about it i loved dont know why it took me so long to watched them but im glad i did...
This amazing inspiring movie is proof of what happens when you can get hit hard and still keep moving forward. I read somewhere that what Rocky goes through in the 6th movie Rocky Balboa, is kind of what Sylvester himself was going through at the time..you know..having that beast caged in and not knowing how to handle getting older. He portrays the character with such grace, and emotion, which is what Im sure we have all come to acknowledge and love about this character.
Some of my favorite scenes in all the Rocky films involve Adrian/Talia Shire: the first kiss in Rocky's apartment, Adrian looking at Rocky from the corridor during their first bout, Adrian in the ring with Rocky in the final scene with Rocky, Adrian finally discovering her self-worth when she stands up to Paulie and says she's not a loser, and Adrian showing her toughness on the beach during Rocky 3. She was the cornerstone of the series.....her presence is even the backbone of Rocky Balboa despite her absence.
Rocky is the biggest icon ever made for a movie. Much much bigger than Indiana Jones, Luke Skywalker, Harry Potter, Aragon or Frodo. There is something real magical made by Rocky that you would never see in other movies. Plus Rocky could not be made by none other than Sly, only he had the power to be him. Cause there are so many things about Rocky that evolves Slys earlier life, the struggle to be somebody. There will never ever be a character like Rocky ever again. Thanks to Sly for making him
" If you know what your worth , go out and get what your worth, but you gotta be able to take the hits, and not say this person or that person is getting in the way. THATS HOW WINNING IS DONE !!!!!!!!!! " MR. Rocky Balboa- The Atalion Stallion
That movie still chokes me up everytime I see it, damn that movie had heart. It had a straight quite simple story, but it worked and still works, miss Shire was phenomenal in that movie, as were Stallone and Carl Weathers. Good casting is everything imho one may have a good story but it only works with actors that fit their part and transform that story into movie-magic, as happened in this movie
I love how Rocky proposed to Adrian,he was so nervous and excited and genuine Its really the best part about the movie.His love for Adrian.Beautiful love story..
i love the way she says "rocky"its indelibly imprinted on my psyche since i first saw the end of the movie as a child,with stallone im only really a fan of this and first blood but those two characters are so rich in history and depth that its almost like he never needed to play another character.ive heard stallone say this before and its absolutely true;here in philadelphia we tend to forget that rocky is a fictional person,he is very much alive in the citys collective heart
I was on location and on the scene of Rocky V I lived around the corner of filming of Rocky 1. 2. And 5 and got to hang out with him and get photos and Talia Shire
Rocky was a brilliant movie. Actors were pure and real. Sly never sold out. He didn't let money sell him out. He said he knew how to be poor and it didn't bother him. That's something to think about....
Talia absolutely found that shy nervous awkward nerdy girl. She did some home work on that character. I have never thought of ROCKY as a boxing movie. It is a love story about two people who complete each other. It is through Adrians love that Rocky finds his strength.
See, Talia hit it EXACTLY... This is the way IT IS with all writers. Writers are ALL their characters, --- heroes, heroines, and, --- YES, the villains too.
Wow, Rocky was shot in 28 days, that's amazing. Sylvester Stallone is not just an action hero, he has a brilliant, brilliant mind.
+W Judon 28 days???? wow
That explains a whole lot actually
Sly is my hero
People who are so talented generally have huge IQs. Doloh Lundgren is a perfect example
Oh, --- YES!!!
Their first kiss; She back against the wall, when Rocky takes of her glasses.Her eyes, that moment, so beautiful...
Talia has beautiful eyes....adrian has beautiful eyes....
you read my mind!

I think every man needs an Adrian
What a introduction by Talia. Great job.
She still hot
I thought adrian was beautiful
YO ADRIAN WE DID IT !!!!!!
Non adrien e Adriana my frend!!
“I love you...I love you!”
Talia made a very beautiful and touching speech , * She'll forever in he's corner * That made me burst on tears :´|
one of the best on screen couples ever.I hated that she died in Rocky Balboa.The Rocky saga always gives me chills to this day and they are a big part of my earlier days and won't ever tire of watching them.Hail to the King...Rocky Balboa!!
I couldn't have said it better.
She's such an eloquent speaker.
So great to see them together again after all those years ago.
Long live Rocky!
It was a love story. Stallone has said that Rocky is a movie about Adrian. That Rocky was a bum until he met her and that's when he because a winner. And I love that scene when they first kiss, too. GREAT MOVIE.

Amen!!!
Agree with you I could never imagine Rocky without Adrian
Without any one of these actors, you don't have the same movie (except maybe Carl Weathers. I think anyone could've played that)
@@ilovebeinagirl No one could have played Apollo Creed as well as Carl Weathers did.
I just love his sense of humor....Talia says that it's a great boxing movie and also a love story, I agree but....for me it's a LOVE story first, and then a boxing movie....and I've also watched that love scene a million times....I was 22 the first time I saw Rocky and instantly fell in love with Sylvester, he had the most soulful & sad eyes, just amazing looking...other than the fact of that dirty apartment, it was just wonderful the way they slowly sank to the floor forgetting everything but their passion for each other ~~

June Lynn Yup! But the love scenes are always important.

very true...without Adrian it just wouldn't be the same, just another boxing movie.
June Lynn Yup. I ask everyone this when talking Rocky, who was your favorite antagonist? As you know, they were a huge part of the films.

Great moments but an average movie. Hasnt aged well
Sylvester Stallone will always
Be my Role model in Life..
Whether it's Rocky Balboa
Or or Sly Himself..
We Love Ya Rock

Nice to see both of them together again, even if TH-cam recommends it ten years later.

Man you are hot!!
Thank you!
lisalisabok I'm currently seeing a beautiful Asian woman. We're just getting to know each other.
111highgh that's awesome. and I'm current in a long relationship with a wonderful man . hint , lol she's a beautiful woman, her race shouldn't be included in your description of your relationship. I wish you all the best.
lisalisabok Thank you. Merry Christmas.
THALIA SHIRE IS SO FUCKING GOURGEOUS !! PLEASE GOD ! PLEASE GOD GIVE ME A WOMAN LIKE ADRIAN
+Renato Sousa I so want one too! Most beautiful woman to ever be in a movie.
couldnt agree more
M either. Just a beautiful, beautiful woman. And world-class actress.
She's pretty, isn't she? She has a unique, interesting face.
You will get a beautiful woman only if you work harder than Rocky
Every man needs his Adrian. ❤️❤️😘😘
One of the most original, all time, timeless movies ever made.
Totally agree. Every time I watch this and Rocky and Adrian embrace at the end and she screams... "I LOVE YOU!!.. I LOVE YOU!!" I cry.
I binged on Rocky II-VI yesterday , Saturday March 25, 2017.
Rocky and Adrien are my fave movie couple! Goodness, Sylvester really is built like a heavyweight! His hands are HUGE!
He built himself to be that; it wasn't natural
Stallone tells stories about the filming of certain scenes with such fervor and sincere passion. I love you Sally boy! Rocky is forever!!!!!
Sylvester Stallone: you are the man!!!
Yo Rocky ! Yooo Adriaaaaan !!! Love these stories and the way the film developed, and the love these two have on and off screen. Thanks AFI !
Some of my favorite scenes are when Rocky and Adreinne are together. She is a beautiful Italia.
I could listen to him and his stories ALL DAY. So proud to have met him and been a fan for 35 years
The 70's and 80's was the best time for hollywood by far.
Some amazing movies.
Everyone loves the under dog, and all the under dog can give is there best. When that is enough sports can be amazing.
No film dramatises the under dog spirit that humans love then rocky. Even though i hate boxing as a port, rocky is great for the story, that we all love, seeing the under dog triumph.

All Rocky wanted was for Adrian to trust him... and she did
Great films ,, Love the Rocky movies
I love those movies

Talia will always be Adrian and Sly, Rocky. Talia is till beautiful for her age. She looks like she's still in her 30's.
I don't wanna see the women in there 30's you've seen, she looks great here but come on!
Yes she is beautiful inside and out
@@boycie2.099 Right, stretch much? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think that 32 yrs of Rocky"s movies ,he should have married talia shire.
This is my video of Rocky.
Sylvester stallone went to college in Australia yrs ago if 1976 they interviewed Susan Sarandon, chear ,then Talia Shire walked in and she was the best Sylvester stallone had 106 dollars and in the break of set's they got food out of the trash ,only the one that had fresh food left. Irwin Winkler, and William chatnof liked writing in a spiral notebook. They had to do the movie under a million dollars and rocky one made the biggest franchise in history. Barry shulman.
Barry Shulman Seem like a great couple.
Barry Shulman She's already married a long time
He would've probably never remarried had he done so.
His Rambo series ain't to shabby either! And especially The 08 version! Just loved it!
This is really Down to Earth speaking. Talia and Sly just come out and tell it like it was. They're brief, forthright and don't speak in all these pretentious Hollywood terms. They speak from their hearts and what a gentle humble memory it all was. Sometimes accidents happen for a reason.

Not only Rocky Balboa, the character but Sylvester Stallone, himself, is a great representation of us Italian American people.
i jus saw all the rocky movies this year and i can say i love all of them... the story line the actors... everything about it i loved dont know why it took me so long to watched them but im glad i did...
Thank you rocky and adriana!!!!! Always in my heart!
S. STALLONE IS A GENIUS! TALIA , SHES SO PURE SWEET HEART, SUPER SMART AND GENTLE! AMAZING ROCKY MOVIES! THANKS FOR THAT FILMS!!
Yo Adrien.....We did it.
Sly always gives great speeches, always.
that was so sweet when he was talking about kissing talia “I saw perfection that day” 🥺
Rocky was my inspiration, ROCKY will always will have impact to our lives! We love his life
Rocky I,II & IV are my favourites. Unbelievable cast when you think they were mainly unknowns yet they just bonded so well together on screen.
Rocky III is the best movie that Stallone has directed.
This amazing inspiring movie is proof of what happens when you can get hit hard and still keep moving forward. I read somewhere that what Rocky goes through in the 6th movie Rocky Balboa, is kind of what Sylvester himself was going through at the time..you know..having that beast caged in and not knowing how to handle getting older.

My favourite Movie Series Rocky.Both are the Amazing.
I will 4ever love Sly Stallone!! I think hez a great humble man!! hez da epitome of do it UR WAY and NEVER give up!!
WOW!! I love Rocky deeply and respect you, Mrs. Shire and Mr. Stallone, immensely. THANK YOU for the legendary film series!
Stallone is an amazing talent both in front of and behind the camera.
The Rocky movies are great watched them more than any other films. Stallones a genius..
I've always loved and enjoyed te many movies Stallone has made...He's a great man in my view.
God bless these people.

Awe! Talia introduces Sylvester so beautifully 😭
Talia Shire foi perfeita como esposa de Rocky Balboa, foi marcante e sempre será pra toda vida. Brazil ❤️❤️

Love how both they played there parts and a true and timeless classic film series that will never get old or go out of style.

Best movies and best actors and actresses they did great rocky and Adrian always.
Without any doubt one of the greatest movies ever made. It's truly cinema perfection
I love you rocky! The best movies ever really enjoyed them. Plus he's gorgeous!
and still is so wonderful,Talia i fell in love with you together with Rocky..
Love Talia Shire, wish she had been in more pictures.
I grew up on these films ! 80s action films are the best and will not be beat .The rocky films are awsome !!!!!!

I was just wondering if you wouldn't mind marrying me too much
Agreed... And, it was adorable when he invited "Mr. Tiger" to the wedding.
Rocky is the Masterpiece!
we love ya sylvester, my 9 year old son is your biggest fan, rocky, rambo he loves it all..........
jesus hes 20 now, time goes by too fast huh
a great man ! much respect and appreciation to MR Stallone.
its not overrated one of the best films ever made
And love it that they understand and protect the reason why Rocky has become so popular.
"Keep punching"...every day.
The ice skating scene is so funny!!!
I honestly think Sly was in love with her at some point irl
I can guess this half-love-friendship-respect happens a lot to actors and actresses when they work in roles together.
Stallone, the man, the genius, the champ.
Love you sly. My hero
Una entrevista inolvidable sin duda la mejor
Her annunciation is beautiful.
i love the way she says "rocky"its indelibly imprinted on my psyche since i first saw the end of the movie as a child,with stallone im only really a fan of this and first blood but those two characters are so rich in history and depth that its almost like he never needed to play another character.ive heard stallone say this before and its absolutely true;here in philadelphia we tend to forget that rocky is a fictional person,he is very much alive in the citys collective heart

Boy, Taglia is so beautiful and what a smile ❤️
Talia Shire IS A great actress.. she did 5star in Rocky Series
Best movies series of alllllllllllll time.
Rocky was a brilliant movie. Actors were pure and real. Sly never sold out. He didn't let money sell him out. He said he knew how to be poor and it didn't bother him. That's something to think about....

Yo Adriaaan. Great motivational movies.
stallone is one piece of talent americans should be proud of
See, Talia hit it EXACTLY... This is the way IT IS with all writers. Writers are ALL their characters, --- heroes, heroines, and, --- YES, the villains too.
STALLONE IN A WORD= GENUINE!
Always so inspiring,
Sly, you are the man !!!
great stories--wow; thanx Sly
He's unique and the greatest of all.
