Description
Destined for bit parts and supporting roles, Sylvester Stallone broke out by creating some of the most memorable characters in cinema, including Rocky and Rambo. But in a career filled with unmatched box office punch, many of Sly’s films were ignored by audiences and excoriated by critics. Now an entertainment lion in winter, Stallone is ready to look back at his life and career. In the Netflix documentary film Sly, Stallone takes the gloves off to talk about his unlikely rise to fame, the ups and downs of celebrity, and his disappointments on and off the big screen. In this episode of You Can't Make This Up, host Rebecca Lavoie interviews director Thom Zimny. SPOILER ALERT! If you haven't watched Sly yet, make sure to add it to your watch-list before listening on.  Listen to more from Netflix Podcasts.
