Class Discussion September 5th

While watching the movie, I noticed that slowly Rocky was getting his life together and deciding what he wanted and didn't want. When trying new things and meeting new people, he saw that he didn't want to continue hurting people. He started drifting away from his work and started focusing on his love and social life. I think this shows that the people he knew like Mickey were trying to drive him to just focus on work and nothing else. They wouldn't let him try to get social and friendly with others, instead just telling him what to do. That is why they had such conflict in this part of the movie. Mickey saw that Rocky didn't like his way of work and that he didn't want to do certain things. Rocky was finally getting happy with a girl.
Talking about the girl, Adrian, she is not very confident about herself, hiding and trying to go unnoticed, but Rocky tries to bring her out. When ice-skating, Rocky said he didn't want to hurt himself,  so he said he wouldn't skate. But he still stood by her the entire time, showing he cares about her. Also, Adrian gets confident enough around him that she goes into his house. This can also show they are slowly bonding and getting closer to each other.
