The Core of Creativity

"Truth must not be made into a static, stultifying thing. In art, truth should be the search for truth."

-Robert Lewis, excerpt from his 1957 lectures, "Method or Madness" regarding THE METHOD school of acting.

The man makes some very strong, antiquated statements regarding actor's do's and don'ts... not all of which I agree with. However, I can get in line with his basic principle on artistic truth in general. I wish more television shows, plays, and films strictly upheld that idea now.
