This is a prime example of how Sylvester Stallone continues to defy the odds keeping to his fitness routines at the late age of 60. It shows how Sylvester can use his method acting in the way of implementing his real life into the film as he is playing a sick older fighter, despite being used to playing the hero in these types of films. It shows how Stallone uses Stanislavski's techniques all throughout his acting. (Item 6)

With a film like rocky, Stallone has to adapt his acting style and film style, whilst still maintaining his auteur style of an all action hero, however in creed we see how Stallone turns this character to the younger generation. (Item 7) This is not the only time that we see Stallone use his method acting to maintain a character. We see a lot of overcoming he odds within his films and this is exemplified in his role in Copland. For this role Stallone had to gain 40 pounds, a complete opposite to his lifestyle we have come accustomed too, yet he is still able to keep his Auteur style whilst making the character relatable to the audience as he looks like the everyday man in this film.

Voice into acting book quote " "In the organic approach to performance we aim to integrate impulse, language, mind, body and voice so that we recreate a human experience in performance that is coming form the whole human being, not just the conscious brain"
(Item 11)
Speaker: This is a key quote as it shows how despite many people seeing Sylvester as a one way actor, he can do many different styles of acting and in fact he is underappreciated for his acting skills.
