Решила поближе познакомится с фильмографией Сталлоне. Очень уж он меня покорил с "Рокки".
И продолжить я решила с его второй культовой роли, и это Рэмбо.
WOW! Отличный боевик!
Держит в напряжении всё время и не отпускает внимание ни на минуту.
Я под впечатлением. И снова Сильвестор поразил меня своей игрой.
Его герой - один из лучших бойцов и ветеран войны во Вьетнаме, вернувшийся с передовой, и не знающий что делать дальше, как это часто бывает.
Он практически ничего не говорит, его герой одинок и страдает из-за этого.
Хотя война во Вьетнаме, как и любая другая, была бессмысленна, и поломала жизнь многих людей, не для этого Джон воевал там,
чтобы к нему из-за ничего пристали на пустом месте власти небольшого городка. Они злоупотребили своими полномочиями, и получили что хотели.
Это нелепо на самом деле, сколько усилий они кинули на поимку Рэмбо. А он продолжал атаковать.
Может им управлял животный инстинкт, нов глазах у него было глубокое одиночество.
В конце, он буквально взорвался от переизбытка сдерживаемых чувств.
Помимо всего прочего, мне очень понравилось, что все действия одного человека против сотни людей.
Его превосходство перед ними, оно действительно реально. Ты реально веришь, что этому человеку по силу справится с десятком людей.
And also - GOD! He is sexy! After showing buyers a 40-minute edit of the film, the international rights sold in five minutes.
In the DVD commentary, Sylvester Stallone compares Rambo to the monster of Dr. Frankenstein and Col. Trautman as the doctor,
in the respect that Rambo is a war machine monster created by America to do its bidding, but then he escapes and runs amok, but also wanting to fit into a society who shuns him,
and Col. Trautman basically was instrumental in making Rambo into what he is and feels remorse for how he turned out and does what he can to help make things right. читать дальшеThe name "Rambo" came from a brand of apples of the same name.
A plot point that was present in the novel but absent from the film was the primary reason behind Teasle's resentment and contempt towards Rambo,
which was that Rambo was a veteran of the Vietnam War, which gained a lot of attention, whereas Teasle was a veteran of the Korean War.
A war which most people had all-but-completely-forgotten at this point in time.
This film has a reputation of being overly violent. However, the total body count of the movie is one: Gault falling from the helicopter. All others survive, even Teasle.
The end of the chase between Rambo (on a motorcycle) and Sheriff Teasle, where Teasle's police car rolls off an embankment and flips over upside down, was not scripted this way,
but when the car ended up in that position, director Ted Kotcheff liked the result so much that he continued shooting the scene
and had Brian Dennehy get into the police car while it was still upside down, and filmed the scene as it appears in the movie.
Sylvester Stallone suffered several serious injuries during filming of this movie.
For the scene where Rambo jumps off the cliff and injures himself on some tree branches on the way down,
Stallone performs the stunt himself during the bottom third of the fall, and in the process, broke one of his ribs when he landed on the tree branch.
Stallone remarks on the DVD commentary that it was easy to play the landing when Rambo screams in pain, since he was not acting and was really in pain.
Also for the scene where Rambo first runs into the abandoned mine shaft to elude the guardsmen firing at him,
Stallone places his hand on top of a piece of wood, not realizing that his hand was right on top of a gunfire squib that went off a second later, injuring his hand in the process.
Stallone mentions that the pain he felt was so intense, he was afraid to look at his hand, fearing the squib had completely blown his thumb off.
In the DVD commentary for the film Sylvester Stallone recalls an incident during filming where a girl in the town bar
pretended to be a fan of his in order to try and wheedle a free round of drinks out of him. He later includes just such a scene in his film Rocky Balboa.
