About this Quote

This quote by Nastassja Kinski speaks with the concept of acting as a kind of escapism. As a star, you are able to handle a role and end up being another person for a time period. When the motion picture is over and the camera stops, you are no longer accountable for the character you have represented. It is a method to explore various elements of life without needing to handle the effects of those actions. Performing permits you to explore different emotions and experiences without having to actually live them. It is a method to escape from truth and check out various parts of yourself. It is a method to reveal yourself without having to take on the responsibility of the consequences of those actions. Acting is a type of escapism that enables you to explore different aspects of life without having to handle the responsibility of those actions.
