One of the mysteries of acting is that there is both more and less happening at the same time than is commonly believed. Less, because you can only draw the really great from yourself and not invent it; more because this great is so difficult to achieve. It is created in the laboratory of the heart. The fact that the actor Alan Arkin worked a lot in this laboratory can be seen, for example, in the role in “Little Miss Sunshine”, which brought him a well-deserved Oscar and endless love: as a heroin-addicted grandfather who, with his incessant cursing, poorly hides what for a deep decent man he is.
