Also, I wonder if Al Pacino has done any kind of role where he is not noticeably acting but is doing things for real? I dunno if I've ever seen him do such 'raw' stuff as these two and Robert de Niro.
Oh shit, forgot to mention The Deer Hunter, which is truly one of the best 'acted' films I've seen, simply because it doesn't feel that they are acting, mostly in the beginning, where it seems that Michael Cimino just placed a camera there and let these guys just hang out and do things for real. Gotta get the DVD with the documentary. Why haven't I done this yet?
There is an emotional scene near the end of the film where Marietta finally catches up to her daughter. Outside a dusty small-town jail, they embrace each other, sobbing. as Dern was getting ready to go in front of the camera, concentrating, she dimly heard someone trying to get her attention. Then she heard Diane Ladd´s sharp reprimand, "Leave Laura alone! She´s preparing!"
Ladd recounts fondly: "Well, the scene started and we looked in each other´s eyes."
Two generations of Method actresses meeting in Lynchland. "We both have been through a lot of stuff together and we both just really lost it, looking at each other cry."
"And I knew what memory Laura was using to get the tears and she knew which one I was using," says Ladd. "What were they? Honey, we´ll never tell."
