Movie Reviews of The Method With Lorrie Hull, Ph.D.
Movie Review: Viewable in all countries-Region O, plus review quotes
Summary: 5 Stars
This DVD is viewable in all countries-Region 0. UPC: 689076281522, and ASIN: B0008EWRAE. It is a 2 hour updated version of the video, "The Method Based on Stanislavski and Strasberg," and complements Hull's book, "Strasberg's Method As Taught by Lorrie Hull: A Practical Guide for Actors, Teachers, and Directors," ISBN: 0971040117, also sold by Amazon.
The DVD is movie quality with printed and picture menus for easy access to any section. Teachers find the menu especially helpful, but actors, directors and the viewing audience have also found the entire DVD informative and interesting. People have written to the producers that they find the DVD has contributed to their appreciation and pleasure as film and theatre audience members.
All reviews of the video also apply to the DVD updated version including "Stage Directions" Magazine: "The Method" is real, vibrant, and absolutely absorbing...for actors and directors seeking to better understand the method, this comes highly recommended.
Students at the Hull Actors Studio in Santa Monica concur with "Stage Directions" review by highly recommending this DVD to other acting & directing students, as well as to working professionals, and also to people who are interested in appreciating and enjoying viewing acting training and how many fine actors and directors work.
Students claim that this DVD is of great value to them as they work along with it as if they were in Hull's class. People living far away also claim that the DVD guides them as if they were in a class for acting training and knowledge. Many use the DVD before enrolling in the Hull Actors Studio classes or for private lessons.
The review by hostmaster@zipp.net titled "Recommended Viewing For all serious Actors, applies to the same information in the DVD-plus more: To view this dynamic video/DVD is to experience it. No theatre or film library is complete without inclusion of this DVD.
The award winning actor, Martin Landau appears on the DVD stating, "This is exactly the kind of work I have used over the years."
Another Academy Award and Emmy winning Actress, Cloris Leachman, critiques scenes and monologues on the DVD in an interesting, enjoyable, inspiring fashion of interest to any viewer.
Shelley Winters, winner of 2 Academy Awards and quoted often in Hull's book, states on the DVD, "Lorrie Hull is the only teacher I trust to send students to. Her teaching and book [and DVD] of the Method are the best I've ever seen since Strasberg. Lorrie teaches you how to work deeply with great effect. (And) it's the beginning of very good careers for lots of people."
All of us co-producers hope that others find the DVD useful, as well as beneficial in class situations, learning about The Method in one's home, or as interested individuals.
