Variety.
You see, I do the whole thing.
Dancing's just the tip
of this iceberg.
A friend of my sister,
she tells fortunes and stuff.
She says I'm doing my last dance
on this dark little planet.
So it's gotta be spectacular, you know?
How bright our spirits
go shooting out into space...
...depends on how much we contributed
to the earthly brilliance of this world.
And I mean to be a major contributor.
A sure-as-shit major contributor.
-Can someone just--?
-She's cleaning her cleavage.
She's taking out the lint. Oh,
that's beautiful. I wish I had a camera.
There she is. Get out of the way.
She's gorgeous.
Oh, now turn around, please.
Oh, please.
Oh, look at those tits.
Oh, you could drown in those.
I want you to observe yourself
doing ordinary, everyday things.
You'll be asked to duplicate
those here in class.
An actor must develop
an acute sense memory...
...so concentrate on how you deal
with things in your world...
...how you wash your face
or hold your fork or lift your cup...
..b your hair. Observe and study
your own mechanicalness.
See if you can catch yourself in the
very act of doing or saying something.
See if your actions and reactions fall into
patterns and what those patterns are.
And in particular, pay close attention
to the physical world.
Isolate and concentrate on the details.
Oh, mamacita!
Ay, caramba!
No! No! No! Give me that!
You must hold your bow like this,
not like that.
It's not your dick you're holding.
Excuse me, miss. It's a violin bow.
Hold it with a little respect, like--
Like your dick?
Shut up. Again.
Watch your pliй, Coco.
Turn out the arch, Leroy.
Nice, Neisha.
I want to see the leg, Patrick.
And stretch.
Good.
Keep it together now.
Where's the sweat, Lisa?
You're not even trying.
-Michael, congratulations. I heard.
-Oh, thank you.
Don't thank me. You deserved
the award and the scholarship.
You are the best actor in the school.
Well, you were the best actor
in the school.
I mean, we'll miss you.
Well, I'll miss you too.
-You will?
-Yeah, sure.
-We'll keep in touch, I guess, huh?
-Yeah.
Would you sign my yearbook?
Yeah, all right. Do you
want me to sign my picture?
-That'd be great.
-Oh, okay.
-I forgot. What's your name?
-Doris Finsecker.
-Oh, right. Doris.
-But Doris is enough.
Oh, okay.
-Have you decided where you're going?
-California.
-I mean to college, the scholarship.
-I can't use it.
-How come?
-William Morris has got big plans for me.
-They saw me in that Senior Day show.
-You're kidding?
-They wanna represent me.
-They're the biggest agents.
-Yeah.
-Well, that's great!
There's a couple of series
they think I'm right for.
I've had a lot of really good meetings.
Everyone's very excited.
That is so great!
I mean, Hollywood, that's like--
Yeah. Well, here I go,
off into the sunset.
Hey, good luck. Oh, sorry.
I mean, break a leg,
or whatever they say.
See you.
Hey!
We'll see you at Schwab's.
Oh, God, Doris!
She's new. I saw her arrive
in a limousine.
A limousine? No kidding?
-Man, I hope to fuck she's in drama.
-No way. Dance department.
She's too beautiful. Look at that ass.
-I don't know about her tits.
-What do you mean? What kind of tits?
-Tits... . Pointy ones?
-She looks kind of flat.
She's fucking gorgeous!
Little-bitty ones
with nips like raisins?
She's turning around. Look at that ass.
-Oh, she is a dancer.
-Let me up. Let me up!
Let me see, you fuckers.
Last year, we worked
on simple observations.
This year, we're going to turn
that observation inward...
...and work on re-creating
emotional states:
Fear, joy, sorrow, anger.
And it'll be more difficult because you'll
have to expose more of you...
...what's on the inside of you.
For your first acting exercise
this year, I want you...
...to re-create a difficult memory...
...a painful moment when you learned
something about yourself that hurt.
And I mean really hurt.
And reach.
And through. And
