Quotes from the same author
My experience over the years with working with people who are not actors or not trained actors is that you have to get to know them well enough to see what they have that's translatable onto the screen. So you're constantly calibrating to play to their strengths. And the key is to never ask them to do things that are beyond their abilities or are really far away from who they are at their core.
Steven Soderbergh

Steven Soderbergh

Steven Soderbergh

Steven Soderbergh
