This is so powerful. Love this scene, not that I've watched the movie but I watch this scene everytime if I need motivation. The emotions are so real it doesn't even feel like acting. Its like a real father and son talk. Can't say Sylvester Stallone is a great actor though, I just like how he looks delivering his conviction. Its so intense that the lines he sputtered are so flowy like poetry. I think they rhyme.

"But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!"

I think very few people know this, but I've been interested in acting. No I don't desire to be an actress but I just love watching people act, the craft itself is an art and a life. I like how watching intense and emotional scenes can invoke your feelings and sympathy although it can be something that has not happened to you or probably never will. Meryl Streep and Daniel day lewis are epic actors/actresses. They are so good, it makes you feel like you need to/must be good in something in life.

I actually watched a full hour of this guy instead of the piling online lectures. I'm dead but nevermind that. Trust me, if you have an hour to kill, spend it on something extra meaningful by watching the video. He is inspiring, honest and spot on. More takeaway than 10 online lectures combined. Listening to him can be quite addictive, gives me alot of insights to appreciating film rather than just admiring the actor's looks alone. hes a godsend.

If your impatient, just skip to the middle or something, anywheres good.
