Before They Were Stars: Sylvester Stallone on “Kojak”

Two years ago, when I started doing “Before They Were Stars” features, The Expendables was playing in theaters, so I decided to embarrass Sylvester Stallone by showcasing the softcore porn flick he starred in when he was young. Now that The Expandables 2 has come out, I’ll be much nicer to Stallone and feature an early role he had on an episode of Kojak, where he plays a cop who accidentally shoots a boy and actually delivers a genuinely good performance.
