Mailbag Questions Straight from the Fans for the Actors 082616
Would you like to be paid millions to play pretend as somebody else and put on extensive wardrobes and heavy makeups appropriate to the character you are cast in? Sure, the shooting could be grueling and could present itself many obstacles along the way, but you would reap the benefits in the end ... all those time weeks and even months preparing for it with the results being represented with limited screen time on the silver screen and being solely judged on it.
To ensure you're conveying the right message and being conveyed in the movie, you wait for the post-production process to be done and the media coverage to finally come weeks before the release date and and finally enter the dreaded but essential press round-up. With it, comes the one-on-one interview sessions with numerous publications that could last weeks for a big feature film and seemingly endless for the main actors.
It is a taxing but necessary experience to promote the movie because of the repetitive nature of the questions that every news site needed, and the unfortunate effects can be seen on the main cast under question over and over again as they get more lethargic and couldn't keep the same level of energy even throughout the day.
Which brings me to my main point of the article. I apologize for the long preamble but in my eyes there are there to set out their particular situation and how we, as the outsiders, do not really know what really entails behind the profession of professional acting. For years now I got my daily news from the Colliders site and their Youtube shows, especially Movie Talk, and find out more and more of how the industry works.
Because of the numbing repetitiveness and their contracted obligation to answer every question, it is an admirable effort to give this particular job a dose of a fresh perspective or renewed enthusiasm from any side of the interchange. What if the interviewer broke the mundane mold and instead ask questions from casual fans themselves to the most qualified actors and heard it straight from the horse's mouth on the industry and their profession?
This would at least give the actors something more to talk about instead of the usual questionnaires and new and interesting material for the publication to write their articles on. If this general questions could generate these kinds of answers from them (especially from Toby Kebbell, what would they say on topics that were specifically for them? I am now for once looking forward to see if this trend would continue and let us the viewers learn more of the process of making the movie as well as the real personas behind lenses and in front of it.
+ Highlights: out of left field direction for the interview to go and giving the actors fresh perspective and conundrum to dwell upon
