Sylvester Stallone shares some great stories about the “Rocky” movie franchise, and explains what inspired him to create the character and write the screenplay himself. He reveals the battle he fought to land the role, the moment he knew he had a hit on his hands, and what the late, great Frank Sinatra said to him after the “Rocky” premiere. Sly also talks “Rambo,” believing in yourself, following your dreams, and why his daughter, Sistine’s, appearance in Randall’s upcoming movie, “Midnight In The Switchgrass,” was such a surprise to him!
