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.
!Warning Profanity!

Acting Reference #23

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.

Really great talk from my boss Jesse Schell at this years DICE conference

Here's a cool clip from the movie Bronson. I love how you can feel all the anger & emotion that Bronson is holding in after he hears his girlfriend is marrying someone else. The little mouth movement he makes and eye darts all help sell this. The multiple little blinks he has when he says "congratulations" help convey all he's trying to hold back, really cool stuff. This is a really great independent movie that came out in 2008 which features an amazing performance by Tom Hardy who plays the main character I definitely recommend checking it out.
