Filmmaking 101, Vol. III


"I loved acting, which was never about money, the fame. It was about a search for meaning. It was painful." - Kim Novak

I've always been a fan of Kim Novak, perhaps because Vertigo is one of my favourite films. I think she hit the essence of acting spot on. I knew an actor once who, when I asked her why she had taken up acting, said it was because she wanted to be famous. I told her she might get the fame part someday if she was lucky, but she would never be an actor.
