Inside the Actors Studio Audience Reviews

Diagonaldi Very well executed
Steineded How sad is this?
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
elshikh4 Maybe it's the only comment here which has a spoiler alert because I'll reveal some real secrets from this show ! Like how (Robin Williams) is an intellectual actor not only a clever clown who quitted drugs because the love of his child and the death of his fellow (john Belushi), and how he could answer every question by a long, breathtaking and totally improvised sketch ! How (Ben Affleck) reacted when he first saw a screenplay for him in shooting (cried), or when he won the Oscar in the age of 26, and the different endings of his (good well hunting)'s script, plus the (Matt Damon)'s eternal hatred to be in a classroom !(Val Kilmer) is actually a poet who hates his movies (Top Gun, Batman Forever, The Island of Dr. Moreau ..etc) being the best man on earth to mock at and tell jokes about them. (Harrison Ford) is a co-writer in most of his movies (without credits !), and thinks that god will tell him at the pearly gates "You look better in person." (!!!). (Clint Eastwood) can SMILE, and LAUGH TOO !! And made all of his career by believing in (take your work serious but don't take your life so serious) rule, and by the way he wants 72 virgins for him only when he goes to heaven !! (Hugh Jackman) is not only "Wolverine" from (X Men) but also a fine singer and a star of great musical plays. (Will Smith)'s word (Gettin Jiggy With It) is considered valid, accepted and appeared in the new dictionary while he still doesn't know the actual meaning of it !! (Antonio Banderas) works with no exact method, waiting for the truth to hit him the second he dies ! (Bette Midler) stayed for 3 whole years with no job for no reason ! (Debra Winger) is a nice and melancholy woman who slept in a grave once just to see the influence of that on her, so she can use those new feelings in a role after (!) since she see that (the one who doesn't surprise himself is just not knowing himself) !(Ed Harris) is a great man who believes in one principle (that effected me as a screenwriter myself)…I'll paraphrase it : (after all your studying, just leave yourself free and forget what you've studied, because after that, your own sense will choose what it needs and can succeed with), though I didn't understand his very long hard silence when he mentioned accidentally his parents !? (Kevin Spacey) is a perfect genius in impersonation American and British actors (and actresses too !) and he admitted of robbing once from a woman's purse (a party's invitation) just to get some role, and Mr. Lipton insisted on telling the whole story for the sake of the students to learn a lot about fame, fate and maybe the different ways of seizing the opportunities.Well, these are some parts of the secrets. So of course with the wit, great culture, and the sense of humor of James Lipton you'll know the real secrets of this show's magic, charm and continuance. And Yes, he has natural sense of humor and repartee, just keep watching carefully and you'll discover that and discover a lot more also because this is a rare simple show that can enjoy as well as teach in the same time.
harrsh85 this is the only show ( at least i watched until now ) that not only helps to know how our favorite stars are... but also helps to develop the craft for professionals ( being and wanted to be ) and know the difficulty of the craft for non-professionals, you may ask why general public should know how difficult the craft is and that is because they are the people who comments ( usually bad ) on them.i really admire James Lipton a lot , i never admired a interviewer before. what i really like him about, is the way he presents himself dominating even in front of legends. i really show my gratitude for that kind of admiring attitude.i recommend " 100th guest special " show ( if u have not seen )bec it is the only show where u can clearly understand how actors are.., i mean he complete mixture of sentiments, humor, professionalism, attitude, he way they were, etc.., and for general audience, it is Aone ENTERTAINMENT, especially when they show JULIA ROBERTS in between smiling, VOW... the amount i like is just doubled like hell, vow, hats off to Julia Roberts, well not only that, u will be finding your own favorite stars doing stuffs like that especially KEVIN SPACEY, STEVEN SPIELBERG, ROBIN WILLIAMS, JERRY LEWIS, man the list goes on...great TV show - inside the actors studio inside the actors studio's best - 100 guest specialcontinue enjoying the showsee u guys...
Syl I'm sorry but Rosie O'Donnell talking about her mother's death and Barbara Walters (who has never really acted) on the actors studio. I have suggestions as to who should be on the Actors Studio in the future. What about your former wife, Nina Foch? What about the following? Kim Novak (retired and very much alive in Oregon. I bet she can teach acting), Dame Elizabeth Taylor, Barbara Windsor, Susan Lucci, Erika Slezak (she has 6 daytime Emmys), Jeanne Cooper, Emma Thompson, Susan Flannery, Helen Wagner (she celebrates 50 years playing one role on AS the World Turns), don't forget your soap roots, John Lipton. You spent 10 years on daytime with some of the finest around. You could have some longtime actors and actresses on your show. I bet they have better stories and can teach about acting. I look forward to your Liza Minnelli interview which will be a deservedly 2 hours long. Don't forget the Redgraves as well, Lynn, Vanessa, and Corin? What about Broadway stars like Cherry Jones, Zoe Caldwell, Angela Lansbury, John Lithgow, Oprah Winfrey, etc. There are plenty of wonderful actors and actresses out there waiting to be interviewed for your show. Kim Novak is a good example of somebody. She is a golden girl from the golden days of Hollywood. She would be worth watching as well. Come on, Lipton, you can do better than Rosie and Babs.
butters_thatsme I learn something new everytime I watch it. This is one of the few shows where I can really find out how some of my favorite actors and directors approach their craft. The Tom Hanks one is my favorite. What can I say? This show is brilliant!
