Acting should be economical and simple. It’s not complicated. So many actors make it complicated, fill it with screaming, yelling, crying, a lot of emotion but no real inner action, no real focus. Actors who have good technique are pursuing a very simple objective. They know what they’re listening for, they know what they’re looking for. They know what the obstacles are that stand in the way and what they’re doing to get what they want. They allow themselves to respond right off their partner, spontaneously. Acting is not difficult. It’s simply a matter of defining the action.”",
