Acting is so much more than lines.

Acting is so much more than lines.

“A great deal of art direction and costume design affects performance. When Kate Hepburn walked onto the set of the living room of ‘Long Day’s Journey Into Night,’ she smiled and said, ‘It’s bone-chillingly marvelous. Which is my chair? Each person always develops a fondness for her own chair.’ She was right. I said, ‘The rocker’s yours.’ We had anticipated such a question. Already in place beside her rocker were the women’s magazines of the period and the knitting that her character barely touched. I had a wonderful propman, who always had the mail in a house addressed to the character. Papers on a desk were specific to that person and his profession. When the actor opened a folder in a conference-room scene, papers in the folder were about the subject to be discussed. These things help the actor’s concentration immeasurably. They put him into a real world, a world that exists on more than just the written page of the script.” —Sidney Lumet/“Making Movies” (Alfred A. Knopf, 1995).

“He [Lumet] opened the door to that tragic woman—and her world—and gave me the courage to take on that great part. I think he’s a great director. Whatever I did that was good, he created. Whatever was bad was my own damn fault.” —Katharine Hepburn/Interview with James Grissom/1990/
