>2nd of all, i submit that in order to play a gay character
>CONVINCINGLY. you must be gay.

that's not at all true.

that's not any more true than it must be true that Anthony Hopkins MUST BE a cannibal b/c he played Hannibal Lecter so convincingly.

or that Deniro MUST BE a gangster b/c he played Vito Corleone so well.

or that Jody Foster MUST BE a whore b/c she played Iris Steensma so well.

it's ludicrous.

i'm gay as the hell and i played Stanley Kowalski in a production of Streetcar - that included a sex scene. how'd i do it?


>if you are straight & playing a gay character...you cant do
>the character justice UNLESS YOU have gone through or can put

>right?

no.

>so when you got to slob down your love interest...thats really
>YOU. kissing another man. so you got to think ok, my character
>feels XYZ for this man. hes turned on by him. he wants to kiss
>him. he wants to run his fingers down his chest or WHATEVER.

>and if YOU are not able to really go there as YOU...YOU cannot
>do a good job in that role.

not at all.

i went there as Stanley K though i had no interest in my scene partner.

the same thing happens w/str8 actors playing str8 characters - they have to play convincingly even when they have no attraction to their partner. like in the Notebook - McAdams and Gosling HATED each other. but you can't see it on the screen. they have love scenes - hated each other. played it convincingly.

>so it TEHREFORE stands to reason...the actor who is playing
>the character so convincingly...is also gay.

naw.

i submit your sexuality...differentiates you.

it informs your persona & life in a different way then being a gangtser or an accountant or being tall or whatever would

theres a way you look at men & @ the world...that is MARKEDLY different...then how i do.

so if i got hired to play the title role in the So What biopic

i'd have to get into the depths of you. right?

how would so what look @ this apple?

how would so what cross the street?

how would so what type this email?

if i cant get to the core foundational aspects of your persona & character of which your sexuality (ESP in response to the dominant straight sexuality) is huge...then how could i possibly...be good @ being you?

i'd be looking @ my love interest (obviously we're in fantasy land as you dont have a love interest) like yo, nigga shave your nipple hair. CUT.

etc

I doubt sowhat has experienced feelings that you have not.
and as for the feelings of isolation that come from the isolation of being gay...

you could find a way to relate because your black.
or you could draw on how it feels having a kid with special needs.
or being in the military and feeling weird about how you left.

you could take some experience in your life
and take the dna of that emotional experience
and put it into your role.


and you could also do research by studying other gay ppl.

if you could act, you could do it just fine.

and i think he played the role of a gay thug* for lack of a better term, very well.

again...theres NOTHING wrong w/ being gay.

I'm not gay. I knew this character was gay and it would be a reach for me but I wanted to challenge myself. Same way he tried to learn a Baltimore accent, is the same way he studied to be a gay "thug."

I guess I could list other ways many of know he's not gay but it doesn't matter.
But I guess you'd only accept this as an answer if you speak to him personally.

I am sure most humans have experienced all or most of them
once they become an adult.

if an actor has ever felt lust,
then they can draw upon that for the role.

if an actor has ever felt love, forlorning, camradarie,
friendship, betrayal, rage, regret, and compassion...

they have plenty to draw upon.


that's like the entire point of being an actor, isn't it?

BUT!

if you are...lets say a dog person. hate cats. & youre called upon to REALLY love a cat for a scene...that will be hella hard. you'll have to pet the cat, scratch the cat....get covered in cat hair, etc. you prolly wont be believable.

same thing.

did you ever act like you didn't fucking hate them?
same principle.

it's acting.
it's not real.

code switching.
etc.

Huh?

Didn't think so.

& idgaf who goes after my girlfriend, if they can take her she wasnt meant for me to have

My siblings and i are ultra-egulars at this place. Security, bartenders, everybody daps us up when we go in, ppl knpw our names etc.

We arent there 5 minutes before this MFer finds a lounge chair and starts unbuttoning his early 90's short sleeve Single Dad Shirt talking about "i think im gonna take some sun"

WTF

I looked down at him over my sunglasses, made eye contact, and just shook my head.

Then he starts spitting Dad game to the cocktail waitress who was pretty close to his age.

And then he TOTALLY REDEEMED HIMSELF by striking up a conversation with Daniel Bell, a musical icon to me, based on being old me and he hung for a while. I even got a pic to commemorate the occasion.
