This original documentary takes the audience for an inside, behind the scenes look at world-renowned acting coach Larry Moss, working with a young director and his actors, through a rehearsal process that will elicit a richer comedic performance by exploring the subtext of gifted writers. Subtext is considered the supreme form of dialogue, where the character’s deeper emotions and reasons for action, hide beneath the surface.
What was it like working with Stephen J. Cannell?
Mitzi Kapture: As an actor, I was fascinated by those magical moments that makes the story puzzle come together. I watched the dailies every day. David Peckinpah, who wrote several episodes, was always open to my voice and story arc ideas. I began to develop an emotional point of view to storytelling, as well as a directorial eye.
