Cool... the really creative actors who live for acting have no qualms about playing less intelligent characters than themselves I think, and consider them more interesting possibly. I'm thinking of those US golden-era-of-television actors. I'm hazy on that period, since they didn't record most of it, but Requiem For a Heavyweight occurs to me. The good actors throw themselves into the less bright characters whereas the lightweight actors might consider those roles to be beneath them.
With Mickey there was probably the challenge of getting a lot across when the lines were very basic and minimal. Mickey hardly says anything. He had to make you feel there was much more happening inside that was never expressed in words.
PS-- Mickey,. he might not be less intelligent but just less thoughtful. When one hasn't "found" himself yet, a lot of his brainpower is diverted into figuring himself out, or that energy is expended on insecure fretting I think. Becoming secure frees up that "energy" of capacity for thought, I think.
Weird symptoms today. I'll come back and find out later if I was making sense.

I voted for him (not sure if it counts because I'm non-UK, but the website didn't say no!) I didn't know people could vote. I want to vote. *goes to vote* EDIT: I do not know how to vote. Or I think I do but I don't want to. Too lazy, sorry. |
