Review: From one student to another - I think that every person with creativity invested in them has the potential to be a great actor. And I don't mean great as in melodramatic or characterized. I'm talking about truth. Living and breathing truth on and off the stage. Seeing acting as a lifestyle. I strive to be one of those, yet I find people acting in a modern era of self reinventation on the stage and screen in the cheap ways. The tit for tat, earn your moneys worth quick scheming forms of acting. I believe those versions to be Uta Hagen and Lee Strasberg. It sounds pretentious but all too often are modern actors just being performers. I say that because I've been there. I've been a performer. But to be a true actor I think you need to be a student of Stella Adler or Sanford Meisner. Personally, I am an Adler disciple but I would only ever recommend him over everyone else. Everyone else, that is except for Stella. But if you want to enjoy acting. To get up and enjoy some truthful acting, then he's the man for you. And even then, I would beg you to read him anyway for the insight he can give you from a perspective of a teacher determining whether or not an actor is doing their best. Review: Clearly illustrates examples of the Meisner technique (repetition, doors & activities, etc) - Really helpful guide to the Meisner technique, told through firsthand experience. Meisner's insights and analysis help root me in "expressing fully and truthfully in imaginary circumstances" during acting classes. The book includes anecdotes from Meisner's classes, too. Good read for anyone interested in the craft of truthful acting and storytelling. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B009QJMVV2 | | Accessibility | Learn more | | Best Sellers Rank | #122,649 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #1 in Stagecraft (Books) #2 in Acting & Auditioning (Books) #3 in Stagecraft (Kindle Store) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (1,921) | | Edition | 1st | | Enhanced typesetting | Enabled | | File size | 4.9 MB | | ISBN-13 | 978-0307830630 | | Language | English | | Page Flip | Enabled | | Print length | 274 pages | | Publication date | November 7, 2012 | | Publisher | Vintage | | Screen Reader | Supported | | Word Wise | Enabled | | X-Ray | Enabled | ## Images ![Sanford Meisner on Acting - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51txZnaWgsL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From one student to another *by P***R on December 29, 2015* I think that every person with creativity invested in them has the potential to be a great actor.
