  • Spring Breakers” Was Pure Gold, but for Some Reason, Tye Sheridan’S Passionate Line-Reading from “Mud” Stands Out
    SATURDAY, JANUARY 4, 2014 14. ‘Mud’ Sure, everything that came out of James Franco’s blinged-out mouth in “Spring Breakers” was pure gold, but for some reason, Tye Sheridan’s passionate line-reading from “Mud” stands out. You can hear the pain and betrayal in his teenage voice, as well as the sound of broken prom- ises and unmet expectations. It’s a simple line of dialogue from writer-director Jeff Nichols but it packed one hell of a punch. 15. ‘Blackfish’ It was a pretty good year for villains, with The Animals from “You’re Next” giving Michael Fassbender (“12 Years a Slave”) and Woody Harrelson (“Out of the Furnace”) a run for their money. But for my money, the villain I’d hate to be locked in a dark room with is Tilikum the Whale from the terrifying documentary “Blackfish.” It used to be a dream to go to SeaWorld, but now, it’s a nightmare. 16. ‘Upstream Color’ Even the people who like and defend this movie seem to have no idea what it all means. I don’t need a movie to answer all my questions, or for my cinematic narratives to be tied up with a bow, but this movie doesn’t make a lick of sense and Shane Carruth’s refusal to explain it is that much more frustrating. This self-distributed art house sen- sation is more “art” than “movie.” 17. ‘World War Z’ Remember when the press wrote off this zombie epic 24. ‘American Hustle’ great about his nearly wordless performance? Stick me on a sight unseen, months before its release? Well guess what - I’ll bet most of you didn’t see Melissa Leo’s villainy in boat all alone in the Indian Ocean and I could deliver an it was actually pretty damn good.

  • PGIP Programme in Detail Rev 3 20
    !1 of !6 Giles Foreman Centre" for Acting A LEADING PROFESSIONAL ACTING STUDIO, "BASED IN THE HEART OF SOHO " " " ACTOR TRAINING | FILM & TV PRODUCTION | CORPORATE" COMMUNICATION LONDON | NEW" YORK | PARIS "" What" makes the GFCA 16-month advanced Professional Intensive " Acting/Acting-Directing Programme unique? Our Advanced course is equivalent in level to Post Graduate study. However, the training is designed for those creative individuals - from any background - who have the capacity, ability and motivation to enter the Industry. The programme involves 30+ hours of intensive classes and rehearsal exercises per week, taught by top- level specialist coaches, each with extensive professional experience. There are in-house showings throughout the course, and plays are presented to the public and Industry during the final two terms. During the final term, as well as advanced-level classes, students may join the Spotlight Casting Graduate scheme; scenes are filmed for showreel, there are Industry events, and a range of further performance opportunities. These continue after the conclusion of the formal training. We take only a single cohort of Intensive-Route acting students each year, to provide a focussed training designed to bring out individual strengths, and we welcome applications from people from a wide variety of previous backgrounds and experience. The programme is tailored towards the unique mix of talent drawn to our centrally-located Studio from across the UK, Europe and beyond. We have excellent links with UK and European Casting Directors, as well as a base in New York, and ofer many opportunities to showcase talent to European casting directors, largely due to the strong connections formed by our Director, Giles Foreman and his extensive work as a film acting-coach.
