...sentiment was the same. As Charlie Brooks waited to be injected, a crowd of 300 gathered to celebrate. Some of the pro-execution revelers, mostly college students, carried placards; KILL 'EM IN VEIN, said one. "Most of the people I know are for capital punishment," declared Paula Huffman, 21, a Sam Houston State University senior at the deathwatch. "And so am I. Definitely." Nevertheless, when the moment arrived, just after midnight, she and the rest of her shivering, smiling chums suddenly turned quiet and grave...

...union organizer for the so-called "Federation of Interstate Truckers," hardly throws a single punch during the entire proceedings (all right, so he does bludgeon someone to death with an axe handle at the beginning of the movie). Instead, Stallone's Johnny Kovak and Best Friend Abe Belkin (David Huffman), canned from their first factory jobs for union agitation, are tapped as organizers--on a commission basis--for their F.I.S.T. local, and gradually build the union's membership through the use of friendly spiels and free passes to Rocky. Stallone predicates his rise to success within F.I.S.T. (F.I.S.T.??) upon...
