Tough Guy: Sylvester Stallone was injured Monday doing his own stunts in Italy for the film “Cliffhanger,” but the “Rambo” and “Rocky” movie star was stitched up and back to work in 90 minutes. Nine stitches were needed to close a deep gash in Stallone’s right hand, a publicist told Associated Press via telephone from a soundstage outside Rome. Makeup and a flesh-tone bandage were used to cover the wound. Stallone was hurt on a studio stage while climbing atop a helicopter supposedly dangling upside-down over a cliff.
