About this Quote

This quote by Victoria Abril speaks to the value of authenticity in acting. It recommends that while a star can make use of make-up as well as various other techniques to show up younger or older than they are, the emotions and inspirations of the personality must be authentic. This is since an audience can sense when a star is not being authentic, and also it can remove from the effect of the efficiency. Abril is stressing that a star must have the ability to get in touch with the personality on a psychological level in order to bring the character to life. This needs a star to be sincere and also susceptible in their performance, and to be able to tap into their very own emotions to depict the character authentically. Inevitably, Abril is suggesting that a star should have the ability to access their very own emotions in order to produce a credible and powerful performance.
