What do you actually do with an interesting character choice? In this episode, Milton and the class explore an actress’s approach to Annie in Misery: the idea that she is “priest-like.” Taking time to investigate the nature of that choice leads to behavior, attitudes, and impulses the actress can use—and to the powerful possibility, “I speak for God.”

The discussion moves from finding an actable choice to exploring its many colors. How many different ways can someone express absolute certainty? How might they guide, discipline, or persuade? Milton encourages actors to slow down, look beyond the first idea, and discover the possibilities within it. The point is to find something that affects you and gives you something to play.
