      He is! I really wish he’d put himself out there more (or maybe he does try, I don’t know) but honestly I can say he is one of my top favorite actors and not just because of how he depicts rage (although that’s certainly part of it). I love how he can depict rage while being a real character, not just this cartoon cutout that goes “HULK SMASH”, he makes you believe this guy could be your neighbor and this is how pissed he can get. He’s just very real, and a brilliant actor.

    I've never seen an actor be so open like this. 2.30 onwards is quite emotional, you can see his pain. Seems like a really nice person and an incredibly talented guy. Hope he gets more recognition for his work in future.

  • @jshshh1041
    @jshshh1041 Před 7 lety +236

    The part at the end is pretty sad. I can relate to it as far as parents in an abusive relationship. He wasn't acting. He was recreating something he saw as a kid. The nasty and overpowering, dismissing language of a man towards his wife. That's something that scarred him as a child, and he invoked it for that line. Michael, I'm glad you were at least able to make something good out of that terrible experience and it helped your career. We'll never completely heal from it, but at least there is some kind of silver lining. I'm happy for you, friend

      It’s one of the fundamentals of interviewing someone. Sociologists use that tactic a lot, it keeps the interview on track and helps get more out as opposed to sticking on one thing and getting bogged down by it.

    There's a certain grace in which Michael Shannon expresses his rage in these scenes.
    It's not like he approaches the rage in a certain way, he just knows about it, he is very familiar with it. He probably doesn't have to act to express it, maybe he just calls in from reserve or just redirects it.

    It impresses me how he is able to utilise his past experiences in his acting. It takes a lot of strength to relive what appears to be painful moments in his life to make his characters all that more believable.

    Though there wasnt much of a detailed answer to the question on how to approach rage, Shannon gave the most true answer. Sometimes you know how to the person you're playing because you have lived a similar life to the character. It's easier to play someone if you've been them.

    You guys need to see “My Son My Son What Have Ye Done?” if you haven’t yet. It’s a bizarre, unsung masterpiece. To me, one of Herzog’s greatest narrative films and it’s oddly produced by David Lynch. Something in court must’ve went down on that film because NO ONE involved in the production so far as mentions it. But, boy, what a really special movie and epic performance by Michael Shannon.

After watching Waco and Mud and The Night Before I feel like this man can perfect any character given to him. And no he’s not a handsome man but his face has so much character that it’s a thing of beauty in a way. Ok I’m rambling.
