Method acting is a way of acting that was devised by Lee Strasberg in the 1930's when he misintrepreted what Stanislavski was doing to train his actors in Russia. The Method is now passe' (out of date) as a way of training actors because it teaches "acting" and today's actors do not "act" they "react." For more information read my profile and write to me at my aol address and I will send you an article I have written called "Modern Times Need Modern Methods."
