Страстная мечта, или Сочиненные чувства

by Lee Strasberg

Ли Страсберг, подаривший миру таких безоговорочно гениальных актеров, как Марлон Брандо и Аль Пачино, Мэрилин Монро, Дастин Хоффман и Роберт Де Ниро, взял за основу своего метода систему Станиславского, однако переработал ее самым революционным образом в соответствии с задачами, стоящими перед исполнителями, работающими уже в современной стилистике театра и кино.

В этой книге великий мастер описывает свой метод работы над ролью, а также делится воспоминаниями о том, как изобрел и развил его.

About the author

Lee Strasberg was an Academy Award nominated Austro-Hungarian-American director, actor, producer, and acting teacher. He cofounded, with directors Harold Clurman and Cheryl Crawford, the Group Theatre in 1931, which was hailed as "America's first true theatrical collective." In 1951, he became director of the non-profit Actors Studio, in New York City, considered "the nation's most prestigious acting school." In 1969, Strasberg founded the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York City and in Hollywood to teach the work he pioneered.

He is considered the "father of method acting in America," according to author Mel Gussow, and from the 1920s until his death in 1982 "he revolutionized the art of acting by having a profound influence on performance in American theater and movies." From his base in New York, he trained several generations of theatre and film's most illustrious talents, including Anne Bancroft, Dustin Hoffman, Montgomery Clift, James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, Julie Harris, Paul Newman, Al Pacino, Robert De Niro and director Elia Kazan.
