Summary

This quote highlights the contrasting dynamics between theater and film. It suggests that in theater, actors have greater control over their performances because there is no editing or post-production involved. As a result, their presence and delivery on stage are crucial, and their performances cannot be altered after the fact. In contrast, film relies heavily on the director's vision and editing techniques to shape the final product. This quote emphasizes the unique and immediate nature of theater, where actors have the power to fully immerse themselves in their roles without the safety net of edits.
