CHUCK (The “Real Rocky”)
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Chuck Wepner in Philadelphia for Q&A after Screening of His Biopic CHUCK When Chuck Wepner was introduced to the Philadelphia audience in attendance at PFS’s Prince Theater for the preview screening of CHUCK, the first thing he said was that the only way he agreed to have his real story told was if there were no sugar coating; he wanted it all out there – warts and all.
