advertising agency movies time
My dream was to have my own advertising agency by the time I was 30, and that was before I got into movies.
died ends great head rocky terrific time
When I read 'Rocky V,' it was a terrific story, a great script. Rocky died at the end. He has this devastating fight with Tommy Gunn, ends up in an ambulance with his head in Adrian's lap, and by the time they get to the hospital, he's dead.
