More From Dylan McDermott

I love milk so much! i make a point of drinking a glass of milk every day. so now anyone who did those milk ads with the milk mustaches, they're my heroes.
Drinking Hero Glasses
Yes, we could talk to you for days on end about all the bad first dates. those are stories. funny stories. awkward stories. stories we love to share, because by sharing them, we get something out of the hour or two we wasted on the wrong person. but that's all bad first dates are: short stories. good first dates are more than short stories. they are first chapters. on a good first date, everything is springtime. and when a good first date becomes a relationship, the springtime lingers. even after it's over, there can be springtime.
Two Awkward Stories
It's a stark thought that when we die most of us will leave behind uneaten biscuits, unused coffee, half toilet rolls, half cartons of milk in the fridge to go sour; that everyday functional things will outlive us and prove that we weren't ready to go; that we weren't smart or knowing or heroic; that we were just animals whose animal bodies stopped working without any sort of schedule or any consent from us.

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.
Jobs Liars Lying
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 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.

The media is terribly worried that donald trump is going to influence people. the media will tell you, i mean, crazy mika, ms. brzezinski, actually said that she worries that trump may actually end up controlling what people think on jobs and the economy. and it's not the president's job, it's the media's job to tell people, to determine people exactly what they think.
