Times Tough
1. Sylvester Gardenzio Stallone was born in the appropriately named neighborhood of Hell's Kitchen, New York, and he had it rough since day one. His family was dirt poor, so Stallone was delivered in a charity ward by a young intern, whose forceps severed a facial nerve, leaving Stallone’s face permanently droopy and his voice forever altered. Growing up, Stallone’s parents had a truculent relationship, which forced him in and out of foster homes. None of which helped to make Stallone a model student; he attended 13 schools in 12 years, eventually being elected "Most Likely to End Up in the Electric Chair" by his schoolmate. In the 'Bullet to the Head' trailer above, you can see how Sly might have tapped into that title for his latest role as hitman Jimmy Bobo.
