An Actor Prepares

watching the film I was very much so wrong. From the cinematographers point of view to the actors and even the plot everything was well done. The chemistry between the actors was very genuine and realistic. The main character played by Adepero Oduye did a very a good job. Oduye depicted the struggle of trying to figure out her sexuality in a realistic matter. Often times in movies about homosexulity the actors can sometimes be very dramatic and not believable especially if they are not gay. But…

My favorite actress, Alicia Vikander, is a Swedish actress who was nominated for the 2016 Academy Award. She is one of the new rising stars in Hollywood. Because of her outstanding performance in the latest film, The Danish Girl, Alicia is getting more and more recognition and finally won her first nomination for the best supporting role, even though she had to go up against many big stars like Kate Winslate, Rachel McAdams and Roony Mara. Although . I really admire her because of her touching…

Brian Klugman and Lee Sternthal make their directorial debut in the 2012 romantic drama The Words, starring Bradley Cooper, Dennis Quaid, Zoe Saldana, Olivia Wilde, and Jeremy Irons ("The Words").

The story begins with Clayton Hammond (Dennis Quaid) reading his new book, The Words to an audience. The book focuses on the protagonist Rory…

the community that is formed by a cast. All cast members are supposed to act the way they think their character would act. An aspect of this is the intrapersonal relationships they must understand between their characters and other characters. The actor playing the Phantom, in The Phantom of the Opera, has to have an intrapersonal relationship with Christine, Raoul, Carlotta, Madame Giry and many other cast members/characters. However, as with the personal understanding of the character, the…

not have been made. Creators and directors all over the world create films as a living, but only sometimes are they actually worth it. The 2010 movie, Rubber, is absolutely one of the worst movies ever made. The lines are awful, there are really bad actors, and an even stupider plot. A character's lines always affects the movie. In the very beginning, a random car comes out of nowhere, and knocks over chairs sitting in the middle of the desert. A man, later known as Lieutenant Chad, climbs out…

“Actors are agents of change. A film, a piece of theater, a piece of music, or a book can make a difference. It can change the world.” Quoted by Alan Rickman, Rickman reminds us how impactful this multimodal art form can be to the eye of the beholder. Emotion is a virtue when experiencing professional production, as actors can give and take this crucial sense, it seems to grow as they continue their role. Emotion is played by the actor but left for understanding by the audience. As stage right…
