In Topic: Lack of Screen Presence on the Parts of 'Stars'

James Dean Steve McQueen Robert Mitchum Charles Bronson Lee Marvin Paul Newman Clint Eastwood Daniel Day Lewis The list could go on and on but try doing that now and you would be lucky to find ten actors with any presence on screen or off it, its not just presence but believability, all of the above mentioned actors never really felt like they were acting but that they were living the story and its a rare but special gift.Like me Winston you have a passion for the older styles of acting but thats not going to change until actors with character and style come along.Im trying so hard to think of this generations great actors but i can't.Yes there are actors that can act but not the way it used to be done.Name one actor that has been better in a film like Cool Hand Luke, shit, just that one performance never mind the career.Acting for the most part is less of an art now, you can phone the shit in and the studios don't really care, society has become so used to mediocre films with mediocre casts that nobody really cares who is in a film or how good they can act. This generation will have to suffer the indignity of shitty films with shitty actors, which is a shame !

If you haven't seen The Woodsman you should definitely check it out Maddy, very good film with some incredible acting from Kevin Bacon, plus Mystic River should be watched for the cast alone.Blow was very good
