4.0 out of 5 stars Worthy., February 7, 2000
This review is from: Acting: A Handbook of the Stanislavski Method (Paperback)
This is a pretty good overview of Stanislavski's "Method Acting" as used by Brando, Dean, and Pacino.

At times, the book drones on and on...tiring you out. So if you can rent it at the library, do it.

This review is from: Acting: A Handbook of the Stanislavski Method (Paperback)
Truly a must have reference for any aspiring actor. Not dry or boring like other reviewer stated. It is fast paced and offers practical info. A classic!
