I recommend Sylvester Stallone to make move in which he'll fight Soviet Boxer

Rating: 10/10 (22 January 2007)

Make a movie, Sylvester, in which you'll fight a Soviet Boxer I told Sylvester in 1978 and in 1984 movie came out! WOW! Should I get any credit for that? In 1978, I told Sylvester Stallone to make a movie in which he'll fight a Soviet Boxer. At that time Sylvester lived in his Pacific Palisades house with his wife Sasha and his little son, who was less than 2 years old. Conversation took place in his kitchen while he was eating salad, "Stolichni," made by me. He liked my salad, but he did not think that making a movie in which he would fight a Russian would be that great of an idea because the American viewer would not care about it. I told him that he was wrong about the American Viewer's interest. I also told him that I've been in America since 1975 and have seen that there was a huge interest in what Russian people are all about. I felt very strong that due to Cold War there was a distortion of information passed to American about Soviet people. There was a big thirst for knowledge about real Russian people. I told him to take advantage of that opportunity and make movie. At that time I was working as a weekend governess for Sylvester. My primary responsibility was to teach their little boy to speak Russian and play with him using Russian games and Russian toys. I felt that their little boy had some quite a bit of learning difficulties at that time because things he learned on Saturday, he wouldn't remember Sunday morning. I'm thinking about writing a book about my life, and the thought came to me about one of the incidents which took a place during of the time while I was working as weekend governess for Sylvester and Sasha Stallone. Do I deserve any credit for that, for giving him an idea for a movie? Please make a comment. Thank you. Valentina
