Clip from Toy Story 3. Not really of a fan of the use of Dream Weaver, but the animation looks great.

Acting Reference #27

Here's a great clip from It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia (love that show!) I love the emotion & gestures Charlie uses. He's just saying the same line over & over, but you still get so much from it. Great Stuff!

Those who know me know I'm a Shia Labeauf fan, when people give me crap for this I always tell them the same thing...watch him in A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints. Here's a particularly powerful scene from the movie. He does such a great job of conveying emotion. I love how, even though he is confronting his father, he still can't look him in the eye...really powerful scene

Here's a great clip from The Hudsucker Proxy. I love the contrast between the two characters & how over the top the secretary is (Coen brother movies usually have over the top characters and they're great reference) Enjoy!

Here's a great little clip from Sam Rockwell in The Green Mile. I love how "loose" his body is, especially his shoulders, really helps sell the idea that he's gearing up for a fight.

Here's a little clip from Brazil (love that movie!) The different expressions the girl goes through are just awesome. Trying to be nice & pretending that she is okay, but really she's not.

Day and Night

First look at the Pixar short that will play before Toy Story 3
Official Synopsis
When Day, a sunny fellow, encounters Night, a stranger of distinctly darker moods, sparks fly! Day and Night are frightened and suspicious of each other at first, and quickly get off on the wrong foot. But as they discover each other’s unique qualities–and come to realize that each of them offers a different window onto the same world–the friendship helps both to gain a new perspective.

I always loved this scene from A.I. the little dance that Jude Law does is just really cool. Also a good example of readability & silhouette.
