Screen Acting
by Mae Marsh
'Screen Acting ' Summary
“A natural talent for acting implies more than a mere desire to act. It is the art, usually discovered in childhood, of mimicry, and the joy in that art. How many of us have been convulsed in our earlier years at some school girl friend’s take-off of one of our teachers? How many of us, indeed, have played the mimics? I seem to remember that in my grammar school days I was called upon more or less to take-off one of our teachers.”
