Lillian Gish

Masters of Cinema veröffentlichen einen Text von Daryl Chin über die Schauspiel-Legende Lillian Gish. Kein Werk der Theorie, aber Klatsch und manch praktischen Hinweis gibt es:

While we had our little mini-rehearsal, I remember James Frasher telling us about some of Miss Gish's regimen to ensure her longevity and her beauty. He mentioned how Miss Gish insisted on having a slantboard when she was working, it was very good for posture. Miss Gish had never had any plastic surgery, when working, she insisted on getting at least nine hours of sleep every night, she didn't drink coffee, caffeine was bad for the skin, she was careful about dairy.
