Its criminal how bad I've been about keeping up. Its tough to keep up blogging here for some reason - I think everyone is working so hard that its hard to find the usual time for self. Many folks are sleeping late - and working seven hours a day on new works.
I am happy where we are with ORIGIN STORY. I think we've bitten off a good amount to stage (approx one scene in its locale). Its definitely very stylized for us. How does one act a comic book? Or as if in one?
I told the harrison ford story. When y friend kirby worked on regarding henry, we went to the rap party and he introduced me to harrison. We were studying with mike nichols at the time and kirby mentioned we studied together. Harrison shook his head.
I said something like "I take you dont think highly of professional actor training, mr ford".
"You don't need it" he said. "Nah. They should teach you to make funny faces. You should go to funny face making school".
Now of course whenever I see harrison ford, I notice nothing but funny faces. (Regarding henry, star wars, blade runner, indiana jones. They're chock full).
I offered the story to the cast because they should feel completely free to act wildly with facemaking. As they say, we could always dial it back.
