In this episode, which is a part of my series, FILM NOIR MOVIE REVIEWS, we review THE BREAKING POINT, which was directed by Michael Curtiz, and starred John Garfield (The First Ever METHOD ACTOR Movie Star), Patricia Neal and Phyllis Thaxter! Method Acting has always been a topic of debate. Is it harmful? Did it make acting better ? What actually Is Method Acting ? The public, the media and even Actors, Teachers, Directors and Writers often have all kinds of ideas about what Method Acting is and often the perception is wrong. It is not sending a dead rat to your co-stars as Jared Leto did. It is not walking around on set, while remaining in character and demanding everyone call you by your characters name, as Daniel Day Lewis does. It is not gaining 60 pounds to play Jake La Motta in Raging Bull as Robert De Niro did. The reality is Method Acting is not one dogmatic static approach to Acting. It began in Russia and was created and developed by Konstantin Stanislavski and members of The Moscow Art Theatre. It then came to America and members of The Group Theatre developed an American version of The Method.  Isaac Butler's NEW book, "THE METHOD: How The 20th Century Learned To Act", is a biographical approach to the history of THE METHOD! We get to know not only Konstantin Stanislavski, but also Lee Strasberg, Sanford Meisner, Stella Adler, Elia Kazan, Bobby Lewis, Marlon Brando, Kim Stanley, Estelle Parsons, Clifford Odets, Sidney Poitier, James Dean, Dustin Hoffman, Anne Bancroft, Ellen Burstyn, Shelley Winters, Jack Nicholson, Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, John Garfield, Rod Steiger, Warren Beatty, Paul Newman, Montgomery Clift, among many other teachers of The Method, actors, directors and writers! Many of the members of The Group Theatre became Teachers and they all taught different versions of The Method, and also developed and changed how they taught, as Stanislavski did !  Join us as Isaac dispels the myths around Method Acting, talks about it's history, how every Actor utilizes Method Acting today in some way, shape or form, great Method Acting film performances and much more ! You can follow Isaac On Twitter at the link below. I highly recommend anyone interested in the art of acting to get this book! @parabasis 00:00 - What Is THE METHOD? 1:15:45 - FILM NOIR Review - THE BREAKING POINT If this is your first time on my podcast, please consider subscribing!
