"I call this book The Intent to Live because great actors don't
seem to be acting, they seem to be actually living."
-Larry Moss, from the Introduction
When Oscar-winning actors Helen Hunt and Hilary Swank accepted
their Academy Awards, each credited Larry Moss's guidance as key to
their career-making performances. There is a two-year waiting list
for his advanced acting classes. But now everyone-professionals and
amateurs alike-can discover Moss's passionate, in-depth teaching.
Inviting you to join him in the classroom and onstage, Moss shares
the techniques he has developed over thirty years to help actors
set their emotions, imagination, and behavior on fire, showing how
the hard work of preparation pays off in performances that are
spontaneous, fresh, and authentic.
From the foundations of script analysis to the nuances of
physicalization and sensory work, here are the case studies,
exercises, and insights that enable you to connect personally with
a script, develop your character from the inside out, overcome fear
and inhibition, and master the technical skills required for
success in the theater, television, and movies.
Far more than a handbook, The Intent to Live is the personal credo
of a master teacher. Moss's respect for actors and love of the
actor's craft enliven every page, together with examples from a
wealth of plays and films, both current and classic, and vivid
appreciations of great performances. Whether you act for a living
or simply want a deeper understanding of acting greatness, The
Intent to Live will move, instruct, and inspire you.
