Belated 'Crash' Diss From William Macy
William Macy knows acting. See him in TNT's truly unsettling summer series NIGHTMARES AND DREAMSCAPES, as a private detective who's rewriting his life from within the pages of a pulp novel, see him his new movie EDMOND, an adaptation of David Mamet's least-produced, most fascinating play. So it's interesting to hear a great actor -- and sometime teacher of acting -- critique other performers.
This week he spoke to Michael Musto of the Village Voice
"Beyond Crash's great acting and self-assured filmmaking," he said, "a lot of the scenes were not true, they were manipulative. You're thinking, 'Why are these people acting this way?' " Adds Musto: To win an Oscar, I guess.
