@linusapp: Most actors waste their close-ups. Michael Caine built a career on mastering them. He’s appeared in 160+ films. Won 2 Academy Awards. And has been nominated across five different decades. But before the Oscars. Before The Dark Knight. Before his icon status. He was a working-class kid from South London who was told he didn’t have “leading man looks.” So he built something else. Control, based in craft. Caine came from a generation of British actors who treated film acting as precision work. His performances are never indulgent. He never over does it. He’s an actor who loves the process. Precision. He studied the camera, understanding the relationship between him, and it. He understood that film is not theatre reduced. It’s behaviour captured in a moment, in a frame. Directors trusted him for decades, not because he was flashy but because he was exact. When you watch him in a close-up, nothing is accidental with this man. If you know, you know. Share this with a friends who’s an actor who you want to see inspired, and follow @linus.app for more.

I see actors changing eyes all the time and it bothers me. Kind of annoying once you notice it

I understand exactly what he’s saying. Except one thing. I constantly switch which eye I’m looking at in real life

I’d love to hear actors talk about the technical physical aspects of communicating rather than the emotional “method”. Great actors know.

• Zorro • :

I used to think acting wasn’t hard, but the small details are everywhere if you pay attention, the lip moves, the tiniest gestures on the smallest scenes, it blends so well you never notice but subconsciously do, that’s how you get pulled in, and it really is an art

SLAPZTV :

This was great advice

🇺🇦Eh, I don’t see so good.🍉 :

I don’t look at one eye. I look all over the face it drives people crazy. 😅
