About 1950s movies and before.
We've gotten so used to the Strasberg method and reality TV, we just don't realize quite how bizarre the movies back then were. The dialogue, the contrived scenarios.
Example: James Stewart riding a horse (a ridiculous scenario in itself) talking to some blonde babe on another horse. "They're out to kill you, Mike," (Babe) "Why?" (spoken by Jimmy in a fraction of a second later. As if he's known all along Babe was going to say this). Not a moment's reflection! "Whaaa?"
Well asshole, I guess you read the script 500 times too many. You should know whaaa by now.
