Screening of Peter Farrelly's biopic 'I Play Rocky' about Sylvester Stallone and the making of 'Rocky', with audio description, part of the venue's Event Cinema programme.
I Play Rocky is coming to Gloucester Guildhall for a run of four screenings starting Friday 27 November. It's a biopic about a young Sylvester Stallone and his fight to star in the 1976 classic Rocky, and it's part of the venue's Event Cinema programme.
The film follows Stallone as a struggling actor who held on to the belief that he was meant to write and play Rocky Balboa, betting everything on himself against seemingly impossible odds. It's billed as a crowd-pleasing story of an underdog fighting to play an underdog fighter, so if you've got a soft spot for that kind of thing, this is right up your street. It's directed by Peter Farrelly, and the whole thing is a look at the years before the world knew the name.
