I think some people try to live in the past too much. You try to hold on so much to what you know isn’t really there anymore. Like, if you feel it slipping, you’ll try TWICE AS HARD just to keep it. Like I’ve said, it’s ok to care but it’s NOT ok to care endlessly. So if something in your life is slipping, you can fight for it, but you might wanna let it go after a while. Old friends die hard! New friends like everyone. Go ahead and be free.

You secretly know that you want revenge.

“The Place Beyond the Pines, is far more diffuse and can’t match its predecessor’s extraordinarily raw intimacy, this drama about morality, guilt and the long-range reverberations of the sins of the fathers packs moments of searing power.” -Hollywoodreporter.com

Anonymous method: Jane Fonda: Studying with Lee Strasberg

"When I first started studying with Lee Strasberg, I thought it was a lot of bunk. I was watching what they were doing and I said "What is this?" Men crying on the stage and women shrieking, and people doing all the crazy things that he's asking people to do. And my turn was coming and the week before I'd said, "I'm not going back." I was ridiculing it because I was terrified, but some friends forced me to go back. And I got on the stage and I'll never forget it, the first thing I ever did. It was a simple little exercise, drinking orange juice. And I felt things happen to me during this exercise, and Lee started talking to me and he was very enthusiastic and he started telling me that I was sensitive, that I gave up too soon, that I didn't make enough effort with the WILL and that there were all kinds of things going on, and something began to happen to me. And I began to work for him, with him, and acting became something completely different. Suddenly there was a fulfillment. There was a place where I could put things and things could come out of me that had never come out before. And I would feel relieved and fulfilled."
