lost art

It seems that so much of what Chaplin was able to bring to the big screen is now a lost art? Do you think there are other performers out there who can exemplify his style and talent or do you all feel that this is a dead art with so much dialogue and action in films today? Do you find this valuable?

It depends. . . there are many actors who out there doing what do they do because they simply love the art of acting. I think Heath Ledger was one such actor who had such promise of really making an impact. But unfortunately there are others who are only in it for the money and who can blame them? We throw money at them incessantly even for their off screen antics. Do you find this valuable?

I agree with Amyhop. These days I dont find anyone seriou in acting. Those who havent gotten chance are serious but their serousness doesnt matter anything. Do you find this valuable?
