<![CDATA[ 'I think he was going to teach me after film school': Babil Khan finds his 'Book of Eli' by Irrfan Khan ]]> I just found this book in Baba's cupboard that I had given him when I was like 12 (he used to hate it when I used to call him 'Dad' but whilst puberty global westernisation was beginning to ripen) He had been writing notes on acting for me in it that I think he was going to teach me after film school, so I guess I have just found the Book of Eli. I’ll share with you the first few notes cause I want you to think I'm nice:1. The intent - general but specific emotion like displacement, if you are unable to identify with a specific situation.2. The text is holy in context eg. the woman in the man, self-pity, sexual politics etc.3. Follow the action of the text sincerely and the required emotion will arise - the intention of the lines is to tell a story and not to pass information.4. Drama has to be created, it cannot be represented or portrayed like a fact. If you don't understand some things, welcome to the club (I'm here feeling like I'm decrypting hyroglifics from scratch. The rest is SO confusing, can't even ask him.)
