The title: F.I.S.T. (Federation of Interstate Truckers), the union that Stallone's character, Johnny Kovak, helps build. "Kovak came off the streets like Rocky did," observes Sylvester. "But this guy was born to be a champion." F.I.S.T. appealed to Stallone because of its "solid foundation." The story, he says, "has bones." Director Norman Jewison...
