\u2013 I find it much more interesting to play negative characters. They touch me more, while the positive ones turn out boring. Since these roles influence us so much, how should we treat them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2013 Negative images, sad music, and tragic events are always more vivid than positive ones, which seem flat to us. This is clear because a person is the desire to enjoy. As a result, our most intense sensations come from a lack of something. When pleasure comes to a person, he considers it obvious: \u201cAs an egoist, this is what I deserve, so I don\u2019t feel the pleasure that intensely. But a lack of something, which I deserve but don\u2019t have, is something I feel very intensely.\u201d This is how egoism evaluates itself\u2014one-sidedly, with a slant toward the sensation of a deficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Which roles should children play, positive or negative? Questions about this should not arise. I have to play the role however it is. A person must first dissect the entire character into fragments, and then try to analyze them as objectively as possible, choosing the most indicative ones and learning to reproduce them, to create these situations within him, to become a stage director, and then to express them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, I am asked to play Johnny. That means I have to remember what circumstances I met him in, recall his personality traits, how he moves, and everything that is typical of Johnny. I have to understand what appeals to me and what I don\u2019t like. I have to discern all of this in relation to my egoism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2013 What if I don\u2019t like something? Do I have to try to justify these qualities and agree with them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2013 The most important thing is to act them out. It\u2019s very important to recall the character very distinctly, what it\u2019s like, and what it is. When a person starts to play the role and enters the character, he feels his new attitude to what is happening. Then a person involuntarily agrees with how his prototype behaved in this situation. By playing any role, I come closer to the person I play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2013 There\u2019s even an expression, \u201cfalling in love with your character.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
