GREAT GREETINGS TO ALL.
Cinetv contest: the character most like you! By @poderart.
The character most like you!
I really like action movies but I identify with the character of ROCKY IV starring actor Sylvester Stallone because the character has a lot of money and luxuries thanks to the fights he had to fight to become the best heavyweight fighter in the world and without challengers and about to retire from boxing was always a humble person and attached to his family and friends who always supported him but everything changed when Mr. Ivan Drago arrived in the United States from the Soviet Union.
Then this Russian Olympian made many demonstrations of devastating force and challenged the champion and Rocky was not interested in fighting and ignored but when Apollo Creed saw the TV from the pool of his house and heard the words of Ivan Drago did not think twice and challenges Drago to an exhibition fight and Rocky was opposed to this fight because Apollo has several years without training and without fighting but Apollo insisted on such a fight.
And although he does not agree with the fight, he accompanied Apolo on the day of the fight where he saw a very colorful show but the most I liked the character of Rocky was very humble and was always low profile, without arrogance or arrogance avoiding the media even though he is the world heavyweight champion.
When the fight started Apollo felt the firmness of the Russian Drago in his fists and then came the beating with those devastating blows to the point that Rocky feared for his friend Apollo and wanted to stop the fight but Apollo Creed himself did not allow it and kept fighting until Drago mercilessly gives him a devastating blow that makes Apollo fall in the ring convulsing Rocky desperate fearing the worst jumps into the ring and tries to help him but it was too late.
Rocky felt guilty at the burial of his friend Apollo and delivers or leaves the championship belt on top of the urn of his friend Apollo Creed saying that he will remain the best and retires sad and hurt by the loss of his friend, this was an act of humility that he did and I liked it a lot so I identify with this character.
Rocky upset by the aggressiveness of Drago in the ring and that he felt guilty for the death of his friend Apollo accepted the fight with Drago without charging any money and covering all expenses requested a house and a place to train in the Soviet Union traveled against all odds was filled with courage and courage overcoming fears and without the support of his wife only traveled with his brother in law and the former trainer of Apollo, Rocky did not care about money or property just wanted to honor his friend Apollo and himself.
While Rocky was in a barn lifting stones, logs, loaded carts, cutting logs for firewood, jogging and running on high snow and climbing mountains at very low and dangerous temperatures, as part of his training on the other hand was Drago in a very modern gym with specialized machines but using substances banned in the sport with steroids that alter the natural human body with reason that devastating force.
Rocky receives the unexpected visit of his wife who came to support him after she did not agree because she said it was suicide to fight with Drago, this gave him much more strength and security to Rocky to move forward in his training putting more heart and courage doing in honor of his friend Apollo and for himself.
The day of the fight all those present at the place assumed a hostile position against Rocky and this did not affect his look was stone like his face, at the start of the fight all chanted Drago enough that Rocky cut his face with a punch for everything was silent and continued the fight until they began to chant the name of Rocky and Drago begins to feel the blows of Rocky to the point of saying that Rocky is not human is made of iron.
Then came the round that Rocky bent Drago with his powerful blows more than strength was of heart to beat him by knockout and then his words also left a message and teaching where we can all change and this made high representatives of the Soviet Union applauded him and ended up greeting his son wishing him a Merry Christmas.
This movie and the character of Rocky left many messages that I identify with this character, that humility and detachment of money and material things only mattered his honor and that of his friend Apollo and his own overcoming something almost impossible and having everything against him is something to admire especially that humility that made him great.
