“No one is really a method actor, everyone has their way of going about it, preparing for it, but method is preparation, it's what you do to prepare. So my method is to read the script.

If I am out of breath, I'm out of breath. I ain't running nowhere.” IfsWayBelieveRealityRunningActorsI BelieveActingHundredBreathsMethodScriptsPreparationPreparing Author:Morgan Freeman
