Yeah don't let your self confidence die because of this. You aren't a bad actress. You're quite good. If Schlink can't see this then she's blind. Follow your heart and just try and reach your dreams despite the BS that goes on. I was watching "Inside the Actors Studio" and Johnny depp was on it and he said something like, "Don't give a fuck what anyone thinks of you. Do it for you." He speaks truth.
I'm afraid to address this issue in class. I'm very afraid.
blah. I feel frustrated because Schlink was so good to me, and opened up a lot of opportunites for me, and I'm so grateful to her. But I fear I was just a new girl who she was impressed with, and so she fed me more than others. So many people have been so disappointed with her and I'm sorry it's the same for you.
Yeah Schlink tends to lean towards certain people. But I think it goes a little too far. I mean especially in High school. A lot of high school students do things for the wrong reasons and to get there they brown nose. I see this alot in my grade especially. It's filled with overachievers who want to be "the best." Same goes with the acting class. It's hard I guess for Schlink to pick out who's doing what for the right reasons but what she did was unfair, you know? I don't understand that logic. I'm not saying Schlink is a horrible person because she isn't. She's a kind hearted person and I think she has good intentions. Chad was like, "Sam I hate this. I hate admitting Schlink has flaws!!" It's true. Schlink is human. I just wish it was a little more professional, that's all. Or maybe I need to shutup and get used to it. lol Who knows.
Brittany got the role because she is a good actor. Probably best in the class.
You should be happy. You are good too Mandy, but you have to realize that she is going to go by who is the best in her eyes. I know, I'm upset about how she casts aswell sometimes, but you can't let it get to you.
You also need to know that LINES DON'T MATTER. Truly tell yourself this.
Finally, don't be angry. Please. Everyone in the class is. It makes me so sad. You most likely will get that monologue. And you know what? In the context of a short play, THATS PHENOMONAL.
