I always prefer the book over the movie. Movies can just never get all of the details that are described in books.

@Iamsopia @CaseyRoss9966 this is what happens when a book is made into a movie. Many parts of the book is lost.

@Iamsopia Paradise Alley was a novel written by Sylvester Stallone that may or not have been based on his life living in Hell's Kitchen in New York City. The movie came out in 1978.
