“Acting can be a really silly thing It's like playing dress-up.”
— Michael Fassbender
Simplified Meaning:
Acting is similar to the games children play when they wear costumes and pretend to be someone else. For example, imagine a child wearing a pirate outfit, pretending to sail the seas and look for treasure. This child fully believes in their pretend world while they play. Actors do something similar: they put on different clothes, change their voices, and pretend to be other people. They tell stories by imagining they are someone else, often creating fun or emotional experiences for others. This comparison shows that acting, like children's play, is about imagination and having fun while stepping into another person’s shoes. It reminds us that acting doesn’t always have to be serious; it can be enjoyable and entertaining.
