“Upon the publication of Goethe's epic drama, the Faustian legend had reached an almost unapproachable zenith. Although many failed to appreciate, or indeed, to understand this magnum opus in its entirety, from this point onward his drama was the rule by which all other Faust adaptations were measured. Goethe had eclipsed the earlier legends and became the undisputed authority on the subject of Faust in the eyes of the new Romantic generation. To deviate from his path would be nothing short of blasphemy.” Would BeEyePathGenerationsSubjectsDramaAuthorityAppreciateLegendsEpicAdaptationPublicationBlasphemyEntiretyDeviateFaustZenithUndisputed Author:E.

“The costume the actors wear and if they're in stylized makeup and wigs in a live-action movie let's say, in a big costume drama, even though it does give them a sense of great ambience and environment and they kind of feel like they're in a great court, or if they feel like they're in the old west, or if they feel like they're being chased by hobbits or dinosaurs, it all comes down to the actors looking each other in the eye.” IfsGivingFeelsKindDoeBigsEyeActionActorsEnvironmentDramaCourtWestMakeupCostumesDinosaursAction MovieWigsOld WestAmbience Author:Steven Spielberg

“Writers are voracious readers. Once I unlocked the mystery of the alphabet that led to words, a multitude of words connecting me to the world, there was no stopping me.

“I think since I was in drama school, I wanted to direct in the theatre. When you are an actor, you just have to open your eyes and you start to learn a lot about how to survive on set and what's important and how to tell a story. Directing is really about putting yourself out there, to be slapped in a way. You know that in the kitchen, you're gonna get burned. It's very scary but very exciting as well. If you have something to say, you have nothing to lose and you probably learn from the experience.” ThinkingImportantEyeSchoolDramaDirectExcitingScaryTheatreKitchen Author:Gael Garcia Bernal
