Busta Chimes.wav posted:How much credit should we give to directors for bringing a certain performance out of an actor? Even when not going to extremes, like Roman Polanski asking Mia Farrow to walk through traffic in Rosemary's Baby, direction has a large influence on how an actor plays a part. Is it even possible to separate the two? Similarly, and continuing on with Nicolas Cage, a lot of actors are limited by casting decisions. I'm not even talking about type-casting. If it weren't for the quirks of some casting directors/directors, some actors would never be able to express their full range. I refer to Nicolas Cage because of Adaptation, naturally. We all knew he could act, but the role he played in that film was still pretty out there for him - and it worked. But you need someone to give you a chance. I think there are a lot of very talented actors who just aren't able to show us their full ability.
