Day-Lewis threw his personal version of "method acting" into full throttle in 1989 with his performance as Christy Brown in Jim Sheridan's My Left Foot which garnered him numerous awards, including the Academy Award for Best Actor. During filming, his eccentricities came to the fore, due to his refusal to break character.[9] Playing a severely paralyzed character on screen, off screen Day-Lewis had to be moved around the set in his wheelchair, and crew members would curse at having to lift him over camera and lighting wires, all so that he might gain insight into all aspects of Brown's life, including the embarrassments.[8] He broke two ribs during filming from assuming a hunched-over position in his wheelchair for so many weeks.
Day-Lewis returned in 1993, playing Newland Archer in Martin Scorsese's adaptation of the Edith Wharton novel The Age of Innocence, opposite Winona Ryder and Michelle Pfeiffer. To prepare for the film, set in America's Gilded Age, he wore 1870s-period aristocratic clothing around New York City for two months, including top hat, cane, and cape in cold weather.
I think they changed the plagiarism clause specifically because of me. I got sick of going to the library and having to wait for journals and books so I researched online, and made an estimated guess of where it was and just used like a single online resource and referenced all their references. It was like the wikipedia before wikipedias.
not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me
I mean, it is connected to Bloomberg, and across the street from Le Cirque.
Lots o' money here on 58th and Lexington.
Do the 1% stand in line for their own coffee? And would it be Starbucks coffee? I think not.
I mean, why wouldn't it be starbucks? I am sure they get better stuff in their office... but all the Wall Street Guys I used to work for had a drink they liked at starbucks, and the secretaries were running there all the time.
Hell, I even had impromptu meetings in Starbucks before with execs.

I just have this simplistic image of a 1%er in my head where everything they do has to be comically extravagant.

god the last of the mohicans is such a great movie
one of my favorites
mine too
it's so good
and the last ten minutes may be the most perfectly cinematic thing ever
Fun fact: I know Russ Means, the guy who played the father with the antler club axe. Been in his house and everything. Dude was a major player in the American Indian Movement, was at Alcatraz when they took it over, was at Wounded Knee when the government rolled tanks onto the Indians in the 70s... when he was given that film offer, he was a couple weeks away from taking his list of all the people who wronged him and going out in a blaze of glory.
Then he became a hollywood indian. Excellent timing, and we got a great performance out of him for it. dude had anger in him at the time.

So basically metod actors are people who behave crazy.
Can you method act a really happy, careless character? It seems like every example is someone behaving crazy, in order to appear crazy on film.
Maybe I just don't get it.
Well, I mean, if you were playing the part of a normal, happy guy... and so you did the method thing and just went around acting like that all the time... probably no one would notice.

I don't know how he can be ok about that situation. He wastes 30+ minutes trying to connect sometimes. If that happened to me, I would tear through every system setting and order every single network card on NewEgg until it was fixed. I wouldn't even care about playing the game anymore, I would be on a mission to fuck that problem in the ass.
Thousands of hot, local singles are waiting to play at bubbulon.com.
