Bursting to the fore in the 1970s and 1980s, with the rock sagas, then Rambo, in which he played the title role, Sylvester Stallone created an image that was both sporty and patriotic to the public. If the actor then tries to switch registers, he remains the action superstar of the time.
However, in the late 1990s, director James Mangold gave him the opportunity to show another side of his talent and offered him the role of the helpless and half-deaf sheriff Freddie Heflin in Cop Land, a dark and melancholic thriller.
Surrounded by movie stars (Robert De Niro, Harvey Keitel, Ray Liotta, etc.), Sylvester Stallone gives a more dramatic performance than usual, selling his famous muscles for a significant weight gain (about 20 kg) and acting sensitivity.
When the film was released, the public was convinced, as were the critics, who especially awarded him the best actor prize at the Stockholm Film Festival.
