История Создания Фильмов «Рэмбо» — Как Проходили Съемки Фильмов?
Фильм “Первая кровь” (First Blood) – 1982 года выпуска, является первым фильмом из серии о герое Джоне Рембо. Вот история создания этого фильма:
Концепция и разработка:
Фильм “Первая кровь” основан на романе с тем же названием автора Дэвида Моррела, который был опубликован в 1972 году. Идея для экранизации возникла у кинопродюсера Марио Казаре и его партнера Эндрю Г. Вайнера. Они приобрели права на роман и приступили к поиску режиссера и актеров для фильма.
Сценарий:
Сценарий для фильма был написан Майклом Козы (Michael Kozoll), Уильямом Сэксом (William Sackheim) и Сильвестром Сталлоне. Сталлоне, который уже был известен благодаря своей роли Рокки в серии фильмов “Рокки”, принялся за написание сценария и доработал его, чтобы подчеркнуть драматические аспекты персонажа Джона Рембо.
Производство:
Режиссером фильма был Тед Котчефф (Ted Kotcheff). Съемки начались в октябре 1981 года в различных локациях в штате Британская Колумбия, Канада. Некоторые из ключевых сцен фильма снимались в городе Хоуп, который стал основой для вымышленного городка Хоуп в фильме.
Выход и реакция:
Фильм “Первая кровь” был выпущен 22 октября 1982 года и стал большим успехом у зрителей и критиков. Он показал Сильвестра Сталлоне в необычной для него роли бывшего военного спецназовца, который сталкивается с коррумпированными полицейскими в маленьком городке. Персонаж Рембо стал символом борьбы против неправедности и беспомощности в обществе.
Последующие фильмы:
Успех “Первой крови” привел к созданию продолжений, и были выпущены фильмы “Рембо: Первая кровь, Часть II” (1985), “Рембо III” (1988), “Рембо” (2008) и “Рембо: Последняя кровь” (2019).
“Первая кровь” стала истоком легендарной серии о Рембо и установила этот персонаж как одного из самых популярных в мире кино.
