Burmese risk jail for Rambo |

Despite the Burmese authorities issuing a strict ban on the latest offering from the Rambo franchise, the film is flooding the capital on DVD. Copying or watching a movie deemed illegal by the authorities warrants a fine of 100,000 kyat (US $81) or a three-year jail sentence. Frightened store owners are reportedly being forced to protect themselves by putting up signs in their windows reading: “We do not have the Rambo movie.”
