EP. 30 — Rocky

Paul & Amy go the distance for Sylvester Stallone’s 1976 pugilistic parable Rocky! They play a stunning clip of Stallone talking to himself, posit that the film’s true villain is Rocky’s self-doubt, and question whether the average person is actually more like Paulie. Plus: Boxer and coach Freddie Roach calls in with his thoughts on Rocky and the time he made Mickey Rourke cry.

Next week we’re talking about Schindler’s list, and we want to know what you think of modern black and white films! Call the Unspooled voicemail line at 747-666-5824 with your thoughts.
