Follow the wisdom of the great actor, James Cagney, you hit your mark, you look the other guy in the eye, and you tell the truth.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I know what I like in other actors: truth. That's the best. It makes you say, 'OK, I'll go with you on this.'
There are some actor secrets you keep sometimes, and you want to keep.
As an actor, you always want to find a piece of who you are in every role you take on.
As an actor, I've always found that my job is not to judge the content in which I've agreed to perform in. What I try to do is just find the truth in every moment that they've written.
As an actor, that's the best thing you can do, really take people along on a story and tell them something.
You want to go into scenes thinking not that you're the good guy or the bad guy, but that you've got a job to do. And I'm not talking about as an actor; I'm talking about as the character.
I know every actor says this, but the people behind the camera are great. They always have answers.
As an actor, the biggest compliment you can get, in my book is for someone to believe that you're the character.
We all grew up on movies with scenes where the actor is lying, and you know he's lying, but he wants to make sure you know it's a lie, and so he overacts and all but winks at you, and everybody in the world except for the girl he's talking to knows he's lying.
I would never assume to tell another actor how to do his job!
