Rambo Inspires A Mayanmar Revolution

RAMBO leads Myamar to revolution:

Not satisfied with slugging it out with Myanmar’s military government on celluloid in his latest “Rambo” film, Sylvester Stallone wants to go there and confront the junta face-to-face over human rights.

Stallone, who said he was gearing up to make a fifth and final instalment in the blood-and-guts series, told Reuters that media reports of his film becoming a bootleg hit in the former Burma, and an inspiration to dissidents, was a pinnacle in his movie career.

“These incredibly brave people have found, kind of a voice, in a very odd way, in American cinema… They’ve actually used some of the film’s quotes as rallying points,” Stallone, 61, said in a telephone interview.

“That, to me, is the one of the proudest moments I’ve ever had in film.”

Adding a “mother fucker”, for poignancy…
