Why the Oscars love method actors
From Marlon Brando to Daniel Day-Lewis, Hollywood’s infatuation continues.
Method acting describes a broad framework for training actors to break down,
understand, and portray their characters. Lee Strasberg’s “Method,” the
technique most commonly associated with method acting in popular culture,
emphasized tapping into one’s personal experiences to reproduce the
emotions, actions, and behavior required in a dramatic scene.
But this approach remains controversial, because of the mental and emotional
stress it can create in actors, and because of the extreme lengths some
actors go to achieve it.
Although method acting was popularized by Lee Strasberg in the mid 20th
century, it has its roots in early 20th century Russia. Konstantin
Stanislavski, a Russian actor and drama theorist, and his peers at the
Moscow Art Theater developed a “system” that method acting is directly
based on. Stanislavski’s teachings emphasized critical, holistic analyses
of scenes in tandem with self-reflection by the actor.
Stanislavski’s ideas spread throughout the US in the 1930s where they were
interpreted and transformed by a subsequent generation of instructors,
including Lee Strasberg, Stella Adler, and Sanford Meisner. These schools
acting diverged, emphasizing and building upon different parts of
Stanislavksi’s original system.
Strasberg’s interpretation emphasized drawing on personal experiences to
relate to fictitious ones, Adler taught a greater focus on leveraging an
actor’s imagination, and Meisner stressed the importance of inhabiting a
scene truthfully, with less emphasis on abstraction and intellectualizing of
the relationship between an actor and their character.
Today, method acting is perhaps best associated with actors like Daniel Day-
Lewis, who is famous for going to extreme lengths to portray the characters
he plays. From his breakout performance in My Left Foot, where he plays a
quadriplegic artist, Day-Lewis has built up an impressive, critically
acclaimed track record of dramatic roles. Day-Lewis and fellow method actors
Gary Oldman and Meryl Streep are each nominated for Best Actor and Best
Actress, respectively, at the 2018 Oscars.
But one critique of method acting remains: It’s impossible for audiences to
know that an actor underwent intense preparation for a role unless they are
explicitly told. Hollywood has thus conspicuously and carefully publicized
high-profile productions featuring method acting performances, such as
Leonardo DiCaprio’s performance in The Revenant.
So is method acting more about marketability than anything else? It’s
impossible to say for sure. But the technique is a reliable way to raise
dramatic stakes, and for studios to make movies more appealing to audiences.
