Directing actors is the hardest thing faced by both beginning and experienced directors. Filmmaking hardware like cameras, lenses, and editing machines do what they are told. Actors have minds of their own, often making directors lives miserable.

Based on the extensive experiences of veteran Director John Badham, as well as no-holds-barred, out-of-school tales from such celebrated directors and actors as Sydney Pollock, Michael Mann, John Frankenheimer, Mel Gibson, James Woods, Jenna Elfman, and many more.
Beneath the entertaining and instructive war stories lies the truth: how directors elicit the best performances from difficult and terrified actors. Youll learn how to use proven techniques to help actors give their best performances including the ten best and ten worst things to say and what you can do when an actor wont or cant do what the director wants.
Its all here, put into print by a renowned director with stories to tell and lessons to impart.

"Badhams profound love of actors and working with them radiates through the book on almost every page. I dont know if Ive ever had reason to mention this to the author, but Ive often referred to him as the only director who ever helped me as an actor." (Dr. Robert Cohen, Professor of Theatre, University of California, Irvine)
"I particularly appreciated the candor of the participants, and especially Badhams willingness to use his own experience as grist for the mill. I think this book will be a valuable resource for any director, from neophyte to very experienced, who wants to think hard about and get better at his/her craft." (James Bundy, Dean of the Yale School of Drama and Artistic Director of Yale Repertory Theatre)
"One of the many things Badham does right is grab so many other voices and viewpoints of talented pros. The historical worth of this read is enough to make me happy in and of itself." (James Grady, Author, Six Days of the Condor, White Flame, River of Darkness)
