The inceptional character

By Boger · Dec 22, 2014 ·
  1. As much as I like writing I like acting, when it's not difficult to indulge into the stuff that's written to be part of, credibly. The epitome is a movie (after a book, plausibly) with the credits looking like this:

    For example. Well, there is going to be, essentially, a variable needed, a commitment to create an acceptable movie or play. My point is, given that the content is interesting and original, if the character is shallow because the actor is shallow, this wouldn't be such a great idea. But if the actor is talented and gifted to play different parts, then we'd have something. The example above could be covering an entirely fictional story from a single creator, but it seemed nicely fitting to the title of today's blog entry to have it about himself, which isn't necessarily a sign of having delusions. But I'm not going to give color to the content of whatever Joe Bloggs has to entertain us. In this case we can only imagine, if it has to say anything credible about his life, and whether that is a good thing, or not, stirs my suspicion.
