Do you inquire as James Gandolfini achieve those memorable actings in The Sopranos? Take a look at the book of his acting mentor: Harold Guskin.
Finding a good acting book is tricky. The title and front cover made me skeptical, but this book thoroughly surprised me. Is one of the best book on acting I've ever read. Harold Guskin is an “acting doctor” whose clients include Kevin Kline, Glenn Close, James Gandolfini, Bridget Fonda and dozens more. In “How to stop acting”, Guskin reveals the insights and techniques that have worked wonders for beginners as well as stars. Instead of yet another “method”, Guskin offers a strategy based on a radically simple and refreshing idea: The actor's work is not to "create a character" but rather to be continually, personally responsive to the text, wherever his impulse takes him, from first read-through to final performance. animator I have to say is very simple, practical and it works.

Very Good!!!
And Lidia, is a book that mainly helps you to free yourself when doing an acting. You forget the character you play and gets out actings very original.
Thank You!, I just bought it. Along with one of Stanislavski. By time I had wanted to start reading something related to the performance.
Regards!
Glad! I learned a lot reading, especially when you feel locked. The workflow of Guskin awake much creativity. Stanislavski is another good choice. Enjoy readings!
