Review title: Not to be taken personally.
Product review: This book was recommend to me by a working Hollywood actress and acting instructor. She said that it is harsh and you cannot take what Mamet says personally, but it is valuable. I was amazed at how simply he trashes the ideas of the old schools of acting and suggests a more practical and accessible way to work as an actor. It's something that children can do.I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in real acting and not just intellectualizing the simple yet difficult craft. It is also a must for anyone who wants to direct.I do however give the same warning that I was given. It is harsh and you cannot take it personal. But it is good.
