Quoth Hanks:
Uh, isn't the whole fucking point of acting to convincingly play the part of someone or something that you're not?
I've never really understood the point of Method Acting. I mean, I can get the idea behind losing a lot of weight if you're playing someone who is starving on a desert island so you better look the part, or studying serial killers to get the physical tics and outward attitudes of one, but there comes a point where you have to separate yourself from the character, otherwise you end up looking like a damn lunatic (a la Jared Leto).
