Question: Curious!? In the Rocky films, Talia Shire played Adrienne!?

Do you think she was made for the part!? For originally Sly Stallone wanted Carrie Snodgrass!? But she did not want it!. And yet she to me was horrible for that part, too old and certainly not an Italian!. However I appreciate your answer and any ideas of who you would have seen in that part!?

I think she really nailed the part!. A better-known actress would not have been as believable as a "wallflower" (which is basically what she was), especially as Adrienne was always deferring to her loudmouth brother, even though she was probably 10 times smarter than he was!. I think it was pretty much a case of perfect casting!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i think Talia Shire was perfect as Rocky's terribly shy girlfriend!. no one else, IMO, could have done such a good job!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
