Non-state actor

For me, Black Rain is just another prime example of why I consider Ridley Scott to be a mixed bag as a Director. Sure he’s definitely made some classics like Blade Runner, Alien, and Gladiator but other films that I’ve seen in Scott’s filmography (Robin Hood, Exodus, and G.I. Jane) seems like he gets so caught up into creating visual atmospheres (especially in this one) to the point of where he loses focus on maintaining a genuine plotting or narrative. Black Rain is an 80’s recycled tough cop…

during a performance would truly be contradictory to the art of theatre. However I can understand how Stanislavsky could feel that basic ability and talents could be lost in front of the audience as performance can be better when rehearsed because the actors don’t…

3. There are many things that a movie can do that a stage performance can't. Movies contains many visual and special effects that cannot be mimicked by a stage performance because it's simply not possible to be reproduced. For example in Macbeth the ghost of Banquo that haunts Macbeth could be easily reproduced by special effects, but in a stage performance it would a lot harder to reproduce the visual of a ghost simply because it's not possible to do so. Movies also have an advantage over…

star or something similar when they are younger. However, most people tend to grow out of that by college. Admitting that I still actually did want to be famous, and be a part of the entertainment industry, was pretty embarrassing. In a society where actors and actresses are often treated with contempt, it was a little humiliating to admit I always wanted to, and still want to, be a part of the showbiz world. A lot of the questions concerning my family and my relationships with family members…

The overall performance of the movie in my opinion was very well. The movie had explained itself very well and had very lots scenes of what I had imagined in my mind from the book. The movie of course does not have some of the special effects that we have now but for 1983 it is a very well done movie. The movie had also had very good music that goes with the scenes. The movie had very good transitions. The movie had tricked you and you had never expected a certain scene to happen for example…

that actors would become distracted by the audience. However he did not want them to forget about the audience entirely, because they were a vital part of the performance. On stage, it was common for actors to lose their sense of natural psycho-physical union as they can be under a lot of pressure, when performing in front of thousands of people. Therefore, I feel it could be difficult to balance the concentration on the stage with the appropriate level of awareness of the audience as the actor…

The casting of the actors for this play were well suited with the talents of each of the performers. They drew the audience into the action and provided the audience a balance of character development and comedic content. This was reinforced through the play with actors monologs directed toward the audience, revealing a characters internal conflicts. One area that was a bit of a contradiction came with the choice of using Amanda Tavarez and Belinda Boyd in the roles of Gwendolyn and Lady…

to being an actor, and as a performer. These obstacles helped mold him into a successful actor and a model for people age 8-80. Daniel Radcliffe illuminated the world with his desire to act, created a world of imagination through Harry Potter and found humor to innovate ways to overcome boredom in his childhood. Daniel Radcliffe had a desire to act since he was 5 but wasn’t allowed to try out for any professional parts. He was still determined to illuminate his pathway to being an actor so he…

Obsessions Even though we don’t realize it, celebrities have a great impact on many of us. Collin Palmer argues that we shouldn’t be concerned about that impact–it’s really just harmless gossip. However, some people do get caught up with the negative influences of celebrities. Luckily, we know that even negative influences can lead to positive consequences I agree with Palmer because I believe that celebrity obsession is not hurting anyone unless you get oblige them into the negative influences…
