quintessential documentary on the dean of American drama
jhuff12 February 2003
Compiled with on-set interviews with the likes of Jane Fonda and home movies with the likes of Rod Steiger and Paul Newman, the late Herbert Kline delivers a history and explanation of Stanislavsky and The Method by way of Strasberg. Strasberg cooperates with the film and his walk-through his past and tour of American drama is priceless. The surface is rough at points but that makes this documentary all the more immediate and endearing. This is a rarely seen film but should be brought back into circulation for the treasure that it is. Every drama department, every actor and acting student, every historian of American drama should hunt it down and see it. John Huff
