Political Agendas Actors

More From Ian Somerhalder

Normally what happens in a new presidency is the president has a big agenda, and congress is full of people with human weaknesses. and so the president indulges the human weaknesses of members of congress in order to pass his agenda. this time it's the other way around. donald trump does not have much of an agenda. congress burns with this intense republican agenda and so does congress that has to put up with the human weaknesses of the president in order to get a signature on the things it desperately wants to pass.

The actor has to have some degree of craft, along with the talent. no one tries to laugh except bad actors. no one tries to cry except bad actors. how a character hides his feelings tells us who he is. most people don't know that, and most actors don't do that. therefore, there are a lot of actors who put me to sleep, that are considered good actors, but they're predictable and boring. i know how the scene is going to end before it ends.
Character Sleep Laughing
I’ve never agreed with the conventional wisdom that ‘actors are great liars.’ if more people understood the acting process, the goals of good actors, the conventional wisdom would be ‘actors are terrible liars,’ because only bad actors lie on the job. the good ones hate fakery and avoid manufactured emotion at all costs. any script is enough of a lie anyway. (what experience does any actor have with flying a spacecraft? killing someone?) what’s called for, what actors are hired for, is to bring reality to the arbitrary.

I hear about actors being exterior actors and actors being instinctual actors and i always think it's crap. anybody who knows anything about it knows that good actors do both - they do inside-outward and they do outside-inward. you can't not do both.
Thinking Inward Actors
You work with every actor differently. it's like if you're a mother, if you have children, some children need more discipline. other children you back off of a little bit and let them be. it's the same way with actors. some actors need a lot of hand holding. other actors like to be let be and you let them go. some actors like to be nudged just a little bit. some actors don't mind line readings.

But in the right-wing media, they do have a right-wing bias. and they also have an agenda. so their agenda is: we're an adjunct of the republican party, and we're going push that agenda every day, and, as you say, brand these stories that help further the right-wing cause.

Similar Quotes
Today in america, unions have a secure place in our industrial life. only a handful of reactionaries harbor the ugly thought of breaking unions and depriving working men and women of the right to join the union of their choice. i have no use for those - regardless of their political party - who hold some vain and foolish dream of spinning the clock back to days when organized labor was huddled, almost as a hapless mass. only a fool would try to deprive working men and women of the right to join the union of their choice.

It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.
Libertarian Party Democracies Have Government
They, the conservatives, are the real outsides, they tell us, gazing with disgust upon the ludicrous manners of the high and mighty. or, they tell us, they are rough-and-ready proles, laughing along with us at the efforts of our social "betters" to reform and improve us. that they are often, in fact, people of privilege doing their utmost to boost the fortunes of a political party that is the traditional tool of the privileged is a contradiction that does not trouble them.

In a study, scientists report that drinking beer can be good for the liver. i'm sorry, did i say 'scientists'? i meant irish people.
