I Try To Never Repeat

Everyone Can Walk And Talk. Your Job Is To Create Magic.

Any Good Director Creates A Playground. That's What They Do. They Hire The Right Actor, Open The Door And Let Them Play Because Stuff Will Happen, Right Then And There. The Audience Wants To Believe That What's Going On Is Happening For The First Time, Ever. That's What Acting Is. That's What Good Scene Writing Is.

The Real Good Comedians, Like Chaplin, Would Make You Laugh And A Second Later, Cry

The Talented Actor Needs Craft. When You Do A Stage Play, You Do It Once Each Night In Chronological Order. In A Film You're Going To Wind Up Doing A Scene 15-20 Times, Just By The Nature Of The Process. If I Tell You A Joke Once, It's Funny. The More Times I Tell, The Less Funny It Is. How Do You Get To The Point Where You Can Laugh Again? You Also May Have To Cry Again And Again.

I Always Treat Each Take As A Rehearsal For The Next Take. That Way You Can Find Stuff And Keep Adding And Playing Until They Tell Me To Stop
