This video explores the making of ROCKY II through rare interviews, behind-the-scenes footage, production stories and memorable moments involving Sylvester Stallone, Carl Weathers, Burgess Meredith, Talia Shire and Burt Young.
Discover how Stallone prepared himself for Rocky’s legendary rematch with Apollo Creed, how Carl Weathers developed Apollo into an even more determined champion, and how Burgess Meredith once again brought humour, toughness and heart to the unforgettable Mickey Goldmill.
ROCKY II wasn’t simply another boxing movie. It continued Rocky and Adrian’s love story, explored Rocky’s struggle to build a life outside the ring and delivered one of the most satisfying rematches in movie history.

It has such a really beautiful vintage patine. The lighting, the color. But even more so the story, the characters,
it's general tone & style.
Well done little piece of documentary. Such a time warp.
