If people write articles like "How do actors memorize their lines" and say things that should be obvious and then things that are ridiculours....

Maybe we should teach Memory instead of acting.

Then acting would just be an exercise in a memory class...

Or maybe acting could be an exercise in an improvisation class.

We teach all kinds of things in schools but we don't teach the important things like breathing, walking, sleeping,..memory, thinking, balance,vigilance...

Yes.. we have swimming lessons, dancing lessons, but we don't have walking lessons. If you think we don't need walking lessons take time to watch people as they walk and it won't be long you will change your mind. If you live near a high school watch the teenagers drag their feet as if they were lost in the desert...

Acting... maybe but what are we really trying to achieve.
