What happens

No Place to Hide is a 1973 American thriller film directed by Robert Allen Schnitzer and starring Sylvester Stallone. The film is about New York in the late 1960s, a politically motivated group of students plans bombings of company offices who do business with dictators in Central American countries, but when they contact a known terrorist and bombing specialist, the FBI gets involved. The film was re-cut and re-released as Rebel with greater emphasis on Stallone's character after he rose to fame. In 1990, the film was again re-edited, this time as a comedy, and released under the title A Man Called... Rainbo. In 2025, director Robert Allen Schnitzer gave the film a 4K remaster using the title Rebel: Director's Cut, which toured across the United States. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
