"Yeah, my wife tried that..."

Every time I hear that line, my heart sinks.

[bs]

the way stallone almost broke down was brilliant acting.

I was diagnosed with non Hodgkin's lymphoma Nov 1, 2015. spine and brain. was paralyzed. went threw twenty rounds of chemo. now in remission and can walk and jog when they said I never couldn't again. crazy thing was I boxed all growing up and loved all the rocky movies. just seen this movie after getting out of the hospital. talk about hitting close to home. well done stallone

[inderjeetsamajdar]

my wife tried that

damn this scene just breaks m heart. how on earth did Sylvester not get that Oscar is beyond me.

[audiebridge]

Fighting cancer may just be Rocky's most difficult fight

[JustSomeCanadianGuy]

If you've seen the other 6 Rocky movies this is the hardest scene to watch.

[Thewingkongexchange]

Stallone was robbed of an Oscar here. To see your MOST inspirational movie character stricken with an illness this was is so hard to see and the way this scene was played absolutely broke me.

"Never cry. If you fight the tears, the audience will cry for you."

- Michael Caine was right. :'(

[joske]

i get tears in my eyes each time i see this scene

[greedyd]

He was tired. He wanted to go be with Adrian

[afterhourscinema]

I remember this movie as the 1st one that made me cry in theaters. Rocky's my hero and to see him like this....I just couldn't. This movie was phenomenal.

[joshgerber]

There's so much meaning to this scene.. he didn't want treatment, he's okay with dying, he's lost everyone Mickey, Paulie, and his wife. He just wanting to be with them again. He's okay with dying, it hit me so hard in the theater. It's hard not to cry.

[brianchua]

"My Wife Tried that"
Oh my goodness, that really hit me

[jone]

How Sly stallone didn't get an oscar for this is straight up BS. This scene was heart wrenching

[ElDanielDolores]

I must say that this scene broke me down and paralyzed my soul. I have never been able to reconcile that my hero Rocky had to fight cancer. Still he won. Eternal life Sly...

[Matt-rmir]

When she said "cancer", that brief moment of silence before the music comes in, truly heartbreaking. His coming to terms with the news, hitting not only him but the audience like a brick wall. Such a sad moment, you could hear people in the theater with runny noses lol. Such a great film!

[AwesomeJuiceTV]

This scene hit me hard. One of my closest friends lost his wife to cancer and he hasn't been the same since.

[ca]

Sly got robbed of the Oscar!!! The academy should be ashamed of themselves. Best performance of his career. Well done Sly.

[TheMadman]

What really touches me is that Rocky although is devastated at what he's facing knows that Adrian is there for him at the end of the line and that's what he's wanted before Balboa. Rocky's life ended after Balboa, he had his final run to the distance in fighting and he lived out his days until he could see her again which is why he was 'ok with this'. As a nurse, I can tell you honestly that some people really are ready to die which honestly can be a beautiful thing, but only if you let it.

[theOrbitdeck]

When he hears the diagnosis and he says "What's that do?" at 0:30 is what hit me because Rocky wasn't always the smartest and I knew what she was going to say next. He looked like he had some hope that it wasn't bad. Blissful ignorance. Then you can see it hit him once he understands. I cried the first time I saw this. Rocky changed my life and continues to do so.
