      The article focuses on Sylvester Stallone, who grows up dreaming about being a tough fighter, a writer and a famous actor. Hollywood industry in Los Angeles, California acclaims Stallone as the next Robert Mitchum, Marlon Brando and Al Pacino rolled into one. It highlights the movie "Rocky," which is an autobiographical film with a simple plot. It mentions how movie producer Irwin Winkler and co-producer Robert Chartoff were astounded when Stallone insisted on playing the title role of the movie. It adds that the character of Rocky simplifies the personality of Stallone, who is a raffish charmer and a hustler.
