""Jouer la comédie ne consiste pas à être quelqu'un de différent. C'est trouver la similarité dans ce qui est apparemment différent, puis me retrouver là-dedans""
— Meryl Streep
Simplified Meaning:
Acting isn’t just pretending to be a different person. It’s about discovering what you share with the character. Imagine you're playing a role as a brave hero. You might not feel like a hero in real life, but you do understand fear and courage. By connecting with those feelings, you can bring the hero to life. Think of acting like finding common ground with someone who seems very different from you. Once you see those shared experiences, you can bring a part of yourself into the role. This helps the performance feel genuine and real.
