Reel Facts: Unbelievable Stuff About Famous Film Stars and Movies That Really Happened
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. 2023 BEST BOOK AWARDS FINALIST - BEST PERFORMING ARTS BOOK ONLY IN HOLLYWOOD CAN THINGS THIS UNBELIEVABLE HAPPEN As any actor, producer, director, or screenwriter can attest, working in the movie business isn't easy. After Jack Nicholson filmed his first screen test for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, studio mogul Louis B. Mayer politely told him afterwards: 'I don't know what we can use you for, but if we ever do need you, we'll need you real bad.' In the late 1960s, Paul, John, George, and Ringo–better known as The Beatles–were set to star in a movie version of J.R.R. Tolkien's epic fantasy novel, The Lord of the Rings, until Tolkien objected over the loudness of their music. Steven Spielberg snubbed Charlton Heston for the lead role in Jaws believing his 'save the day' disaster movie performances would overshadow the movie's real star–the killer shark. What does this unbelievable stuff have in common? Scores of these and other tantalizing tidbits and scintillating stories that really happened to famous film stars and in the movies are meticulously detailed in one fun, fact-filled volume, REEL FACTS. This fascinating, full-color copiously illustrated treasury offers an inside the Hollywood grapevine look at it all—classic movie star rejections, remarkable movie ideas that misfired (or the greatest movies never made), amazing extremes actors have undertaken in preparing for film roles, unforeseen calamities that disrupted or delayed movies in production, fantastic film foolery perpetrated in popular movies on audiences, notable casting mishaps, the worst screen kissers, and much more. For avid movie lovers and film buffs alike, this entertaining chronicle shows filmdom's favorite stars and movies in general like you have never seen them before.

[Spanish] - El Kungfu de China
El Kungfu de China El Wushu de China, cristalizacíon de la sabiduría de la nación China acumulada por miles años, es una expresión de su cultura tradicional nacional en las artes de lucha y un reflejo nacional de su idiosincrasia particular en lo referente al fortalecimiento de la salud y a la autodefensa. Tiene como núcleo filosófico la doctrina confucianista de “ecuanimidad y cultivación moral” y, a la vez, combina la teoría taoísta de“guardar tranquilidad para acceder a la flexibilidad” y la budista de “concentración y comprensión de la doctrina”, de modo que presenta un panorama cultural caracterizado por la integración de las tres religiones, implica la concepción oriental que considera al hombre como parte integrante de la Naturaleza y se ha elevado a la categoría de un profundo y vasto sistema de arte marcial y una “cultura de combate”, única en este mundo.

A partir del punto de vista de los chinos,el vino no se toma como una de las necesidades esenciales de la vida. Sin embargo, en la vida social, la cultura de vino ha venido influyendo la vida de los chinos como una forma cultural específica. Las bebidas alcohólicas chinas en su mayoría están hechas de cereales. En un país tal como China, que cuenta con una historia larga, gran población y tiene su fundamento en la agricultura durante largo plazo,los vaivenes de la industria de vino han sido estrechamente ligados con las condiciones políticas, económicas y sociales a lo largo de la historia. Las fluctuaciones de la cosecha se veían como barómetro para los vaivenes del comercio de vino. Los gobernantes de las dinastías sucesivas ejercían o relajaban restricciones sobre la producción del vino de acuerdo con la cosecha de cereales a fin de garantizar la vida del pueblo.
