I think that you can fall into bad habits with comedy... It`s a tightrope to stay true to the character, true to the irony, and allow the irony to happen.
I think that various styles and methods and approaches are an invention of people who don`t understand the process of acting and who try very hard to label things.
I think that all of us either lose touch with the child inside us or try and hold onto it because it so precious to us and it`s such an extraordinary part of our lives.
