Sheep ....and some questions
Posted by Lynne on January 29, 1998 at 01:29:28:
ET's comments about the sheep made me laugh..."I've suggested we have sheep in some of the interiors as well..." when Ang Lee wanted sheep in every exterior shot. Were there sheep in every outdoor scene? That wasn't something I noticed when watching the film...am too busy mooning over AR and GW...
Then Ang Lee instructing AR to be more subtle: this reminds me of a review I read recently of S&S in which the reviewer complained of the "too stolid" perfomance of Alan Rickman....yet, it sounds as if he were instructed to act in this way by the director. It brings me to this question: how much of an actor's performance depends on the director? If the actor/actress does not act well in a film....is it entirely their fault? How much control and responsibility for their perfomance lies with the whims of the director? Maybe someone will have some thoughts about these things....
