CHAPTER

The Best Movies of All Time

Sean Fennessy: Rocky movies reshaped our brains in terms of how you tell a sports story, how you tell an underdog story. You can't apply your 40 year old siniest or just honestly, even 2023 brain to any of the Rocky movies. A lot of this has got to be so informed by Bill Simmons too. Number eight is body and soul. This is a Robert Rossin movie he made well before the Hustler and all the Kingsmen. Big morality fable. Huge anti-capitalist film written by Abraham Polonsky who later would be blacklisted for refusing to testify before House on American activities committee.
