Episode 2/52 Passages, After the Rehearsal, Franz Rogowski, and are actors really just society's bisexuals?
Listen now
Description
We discuss the new film 'Passages' by Ira Sachs. We geek out a little/a lot about Franz Rogowski and all the performances, the differences between European and American movies. Then we do a little analysis of Ingmar Bergmans 'After the Rehearsal'. Then we get into the real meat of the episode... Do actors play the role of societies designated bisexuals? And do all leading men need a little heir of bisexuality to succeed? 🤷‍♀️ We talk about transformational acting/minimalism/playing yourself. Then the guys talk about where they are in their careers, and where they expected/where they're expected to be at their respective ages. Audition advice. A lot of audition advice. Also, how do actors develop character when they're constantly in competition to win roles based off of intangibles? And isn't that just competing for someone else to deem you special? Time codes coming soon. xoxo
