Rocky is a 1976 American sports drama film directed by John G. Avildsen, and written by and starring Sylvester Stallone. It tells the rags to riches American Dream story of Rocky Balboa, an uneducated but kind-hearted debt collector for a loan shark in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Rocky starts out as a club fighter who gets a shot at the world heavyweight championship when the scheduled contender breaks his hand. The film also stars Talia Shire as Adrian, Burt Young as Adrian's brother Paulie, Burgess Meredith as Rocky's trainer Mickey Goldmill, and Carl Weathers as the champion, Apollo Creed. The film, made on a budget of $1.1 million and shot in 28 days, was a sleeper hit; it made over $117.2 million domestically and $225 million worldwide, the highest grossing film of 1976, and won three Oscars, including Best Picture. The film received many positive reviews and turned Stallone into a major star. It spawned five sequels: Rocky II, III, IV, V and Rocky Balboa. From Wikipedia under the

Q. I would like to go take some pictures of the famous Aspen Gold in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. I need advice on a good time of day to take pictures on the eastern side of the mountains. The sun goes down real quick where I am because of the mountains, so I know that sunset isn't a real good time. I'll likely be taking the Guanella Pass Rd through some national forests. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks! Asked by SgtSoldier - Sun Sep 23 07:48:16 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. The best quality of lighting occurs in the hours before sunset and after sunrise. The light tends to be warmer in color, and offers the best contrast of the subjects. Don't worry about "Western slope," or "Eastern Slope." It is the quality of light that matters. If you are right up against a sheer, Eastern facing cliff, you may have problems near sunset. Otherwise, just plan your afternoon shots later in the day. Who says that Colorado Springs can't get glorious sunsets? Answered by Vince M - Mon Sep 24 17:03:43 2007 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Rocky" |
