Method Acting

Method acting is when actors try to think and feel emptions that their characters feel so that their performance can be more lifelike and realistic. Stanislavski was a russian film director who developed a system from which method acting was created. Marlon Brando uses Method acting to get into the mood in which he can play his character the best, that way his performance is much better.

Favorite Actors

My favorite actors are Leonardo Dicaprio and Denzel Washington. I think that a good actor is one that makes their performance seem as natural as possible. They make it seem like they are the person that they are portraying. They must also make their performance interesting and attention grabbing. It has to be memorable for them to be considered good actors.

1. Hamlet's speech on pages 26-29 is a soliliquy because it is him alone on a stage talking about his thoughts and feelings, no body else can hear him except for he audience.

2. Hamlet is very saddened by recent events and believes his life is useless even going as far as saying that he wishes his "flesh would melt, thaw and resolve itself into a dew".
