“Chak De” and Koni
September 26, 2007 on 11:28 am | In Arts-Culture, Generic, Social | No Comments
After a long time, the Indian Cricket team has done something wonderful. They brought home the ICC 20/20 World Cup. Kudos to Dhoni and his team. Many people (including former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif) have attributed this success to the recent film, “Chak De India“. I have not seen the film yet, but the media has made me aware of the story line. Shah-Rukh Khan plays the coach of the Indian womens hockey team and leads them to World Cup victory. It is a story of courage, perseverance and overall team spirit. Continue reading “Chak De” and Koni…

None FoundSanford Meisner: The Guru of Acting
September 6, 2007 on 6:11 pm | In Arts-Culture, Generic | No Comments
What do Robert Duvall, John Voight, Sydney Pollack, Tony Randall, Gregory Peck, Jeff Goldblum, James Caan, and Tom Cruise have in common? They all trained under the master acting coach Sanford Meisner. Famous playwrights like Arthur Miller and David Mamet were also his students. His teaching technique, known as the Meisner Technique, is regarded as one of the most effective tool to master the art of acting. The goal of the Meisner technique has often been described as getting actors to “live truthfully under imaginary circumstances.” The technique emphasizes carrying out an action truthfully on stage and letting emotion and subtext build based on the truth of the action and on the other characters around them, rather than simply playing an action or emotion.

They’d rather get into a safer business of publishing prose with some esoteric ones plugging in few poems in between. But Krittibas is an exception.
