Acting should be bigger than life. Scripts should be bigger than life. It should all be bigger than life.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The difference between life and the movies is that a script has to make sense, and life doesn't.
Actors ought to be larger than life. You come across quite enough ordinary, nondescript people in daily life and I don't see why you should be subjected to them on the stage too.
Acting makes you live plenty of lives.
Acting is a bit of a substitute for life.
Stripping away artifice - it's the constant standard I aim for in acting, to approximate life. People talk about being bigger than life - but there's nothing bigger than life.
The boundary between real life and acting is hard to find.
Acting should be an end in itself.
Acting's fun, but life's more important.
Scripts are corny and predictable. Real life is always better.
Acting is nothing more or less than playing. The idea is to humanize life.
