Sam Rockwell is a trained Meisner actor who recently received an Oscar for his performance in “Three Billboards OutSide Ebbing”. In this video Sam talks with students at Maggie Flanigan Studio about vulnerability and anger. The key to being a tough guy is actually vulnerability, because under the rage that you see is vulnerability and hurt. A lot of times, not always true depending on your background, but then you'll see in class the women will cry first and then get angry. Not always. Depends where you're from. The men will get angry and then eventually they'll cry, right? A lot of times you see that. These are good things to think about, that underneath the rage is great sadness and vulnerability. I think that's a big key to emotional power. People like John Malkovich, Alfre Woodard, Viola Davis, Phil Hoffmann, and Gary Oldman, have emotional power. When you see that on stage or in film, and you're like, "How f*** did they do that?" That's a gift. You've all got it, it's just accessing them. We've all got that power, I think. You just got to access it. Yes? Learn more about the Meisner technique and the acting programs at the Maggie Flanigan Studio by visiting the studio website or calling 917-789-1599.
