'Filmmaking, it comes at a great price.' Sylvester Stallone opens up on his life paralleling his iconic characters in Netflix documentary. 'Sly' arrives on Netflix this November.
Sylvester Stallone has revealed his father once attacked him during a polo match in a shock clip from new documentary Sly.
Sly - who was nationally ranked in polo at age 13 - recounted one incident when he was playing the sport around that age when his father began 'screaming from the stands' that he was riding the horse wrong. Sly was born in 1946 at New York City charity ward to Frank Sr. and Jackie Stallone, a working class couple locked in a bitterly fractious marriage.
He added that Jackie, who died in 2020 at the age of 98, 'was pretty bad too. She was pretty handy with the old hairbrush and the shower brush, and she had these long nails that would never break. She’d go:"Come here, you."' Looking back: 'I was raised by a very physical father, you know?' he said in his documentary. 'So I was no stranger to serious pain, and I think it just became, I’m not gonna break. No matter what he did, you know? I’m just not gonna break'
And people say: “Oh, you feel deprived and you weren’t nurtured.” I thought, yeah, that’s true, and maybe the nurturing comes from the respect and love of strangers. To feel embraced and loved by an audience, it’s insatiable.'
