Yeah…I’m Totally 100% I Followed Movies in order to Coach Actors
http://www.yahoo.com/s/1081179
Carradine’s death and Heath’s death in early 2008 (both suicides) shows that actors are unhappy. They need and are lost and confused. I’m 100% convinced that the reaons for following film and studying acting for a bit was to eventually Coach actors in areas of fulfilment and health and performance and meaning. [...]
The Difference between Miramax, Universal, Touchstone Pictures, New Line and all that!
Are they production? Are they for film or productions? Who produces tv or film? How do they handle copyrights or distribution?
Why would anyone want to know this? Or who the hell cares? I DO!! If you’re watching film and have half a brain to think about the process of “How the [...]

Wise Words on Fame from Some Masters
Clooney had some wisdom on fame. Basically you can still make it at an older age, and should, to carry the success, apparently. Reassuring for young burgeoning actors.
And Crowe had some wise wisdom (that’s totally true, I agree) about Hollywood. People get paid out of there but it’s not necessarily The Hub [...]
Recent Celeb Scene and Global Positioning
Heath Ledger might win the oscar for his maniacal Joker character, making this the second posthumous “Best Actor” award in over 30 years, the most recent (hardly not recent) went to Peter Finch in Network in 1977.
Also, I noticed the ever-growing “I hate Paris club” has continued to spawn. Disdain for that woman — [...]

Update on The Dream of Acting and the Some-what Conflicting Necessity of Financial Independence
In regards to acting. Thanks to anyone for that encouragement. I sincerely appreciate anyone’s feedback and fortification toward acting. I agree, when I was pursuing it during taking acting classes, I did feel extremely fulfilled. The biggest obstacle toward that pursuit, however has been money. MONEY, money, money. That’s the only thing. I’ve diverted my [...]
The Tragic Loss of Heath — A Profound and Deep Actor
The tragic loss of Heath. This is shocking; it’s unbelievable. I feel partially mourning, partially stunned. He was an incredibly composed and immensely talented actor. My favorite role of his was in “Lords of Dogtown” as the Venice Beach “skate-boarding king”. But this, according to his father, “tragic, untimely, and [...]
Actors, Money, and Vulnerability
Money is just an illusion. A trick. A carrot that always leads the donkey back to work. Therefore, anyone who lives to earn money is not very smart. The best thing to do, therefore, is to devote your life to passions and success with friendships and philanthropy.
Now, personally, computers and acting [...]
The Best Actors
“The apex of the most highly-paid, most successful acting elicts the best actors who do not act, but re-act with completely normal human emotions in completely humanly abnormal situations.”
In other words, the best actors dont’ “act” or put on emotional masks at all. They remove those masks and simply put themselves in situations that [...]
Action not Decision
The impassive process of decision-making generates the illusion of choice. Meaning that you can’t make decisions. No one ever makes decisions; people just take action. Action is the only way things ever get accomplished, initiated, and done. You finish things and start things by taking action not be deciding or making a [...]
Archive Success and Delete the Accomplishment
One hindrance in furthering success for people is that they believe they have accomplished enough already. Donald Trump, Julia Roberts, and Michael Phelps could easily say that. Those three could wake up and say I’ve made enough money, I’ve acted in enough movies, or I’ve won enough swimming medals, respectively. But they [...]
