Las descarnadas, inspiradoras y emocionantes memorias del icono y legendario ganador de varios premios Oscar, Sylvester Stallone, sobre su increíble camino al estrellato y la mejor historia jamás contada de un ganador contra todo pronostico.En los cincuenta años transcurridos desde que Sylvester Stallone subio corriendo los escalones del Museo de Arte de Filadelfia, el mismo y esos escalones se han convertido en simbolos de resiliencia y determinacion, y han inspirado a millones de personas de todo el mundo para perseguir sus sueños. En Los escalones, Stallone relata como persiguio sus propios sueños. Culminando un proceso de reflexion de decadas, Sly cuenta sus origenes -un nacimiento dificil, una infancia aun mas dificil, años de problemas en el colegio por no ser comprendido- y explica como la historia real de una vida exitosa se construye afrontando, asumiendo y, en ultimo termino, superando nuestras dificultades. La clave esta en la distancia que estamos dispuestos a recorrer y en los pasos que debemos dar para pasar de donde estamos a donde queremos llegar.En una narracion enmarcada entre su llegada a Nueva York en 1969 y el triunfo de Rocky en los Oscar de 1977, Sly teje un vivido y apasionante relato de lucha, subsistencia y, finalmente, exito. Escribe sobre sus inicios y tambien sobre los años posteriores, asi como sobre la persistencia, creatividad y resiliencia que lo llevaron no solamente a crear Rocky, sino a labrarse una carrera repleta de papeles iconicos. Los escalones constituye un testimonio de la extraordinaria vida de Stallone y una profunda meditacion sobre la importancia de la fuerza de voluntad, la vision y el trabajo duro.

I always took the Matthew Passion with a pinch of salt.Ramsden, Yorkshire, 1916. The ambitious local Choral Society is depleted as men volunteer for the front and plans for their St Matthew Passion by German composer J. S. Bach are scuppered by patriotic fervour.

For nearly a century, Walt Disney Animation Studios built its identity on reimagining beloved literary tales and childrens classics. But who chose these stories, and why? Through what process were they brought from book to screen? This essay explores the evolving relationship between Disney animated films and their literary sources, tracing how adaptation strategies shifted across decades to align with changing audiences, different corporate goals and new cultural landscapes. Through in-depth analysis of six iconic films Pinocchio, Peter Pan, The Sword in the Stone, The Little Mermaid, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and Frozen this work reveals the extent to which adapting classics has shaped and continually refreshed Disney narrative models. A research made all the more timely in this decade, as the Studio seems to have moved away from literary adaptations to relentlessly revisit and remake its own legacy.
