      I don't think he's arguing that they don't. I think he's saying as I've heard other actors say, it's not as fulfilling or enjoyable to stick to the script.

    Ad-lib is fine for brainstorming funny/alternate dialogue, but what I hate is when it becomes obvious filler.
    There are some films (usually Judd Appatow style comedies) where it's painfully obvious when the actors
    are going off-script and indulging in their improv routine.

      To me, that's more of an editing issue. There's plenty of great things that come out of those improvs, but knowing what to keep and what to leave out is key.

      @AkkayaOzgun Před rokem +6

      It's really up to the director, some don't want that. I get that Tarantino pays people to read the dialogue, but he wants to be fully in control of all things in his art. He's the writer, director, producer, etc. Scorsese wants actors to fill in the shoes of THEIR character, Tarantino wants actors to play HIS characters. It's a different approach, both valid since both are generational directors of our time.

  • @simonperry8569
    @simonperry8569 Před rokem +8

    Strikes me as he wants to standout and do his own thing, rather than serve the movie.
    "Any decent actor could have said those lines".
    Seems a bit egotistical, especially in a Coen Brothers' movie.

      The difference was in many of his scenes (especially in the Mork and Mindy show) they wrote something along the lines of “Robin adlibs” and let him go nuts. And that was in his comedies, not serious dramas.
      In comedies, it might not be as big of a deal, but the more serious the film is, the more likely they should learn their lines.
