So where are their birth certificates? Hollywood is crowded with visitors, foreigners, and to expel them, we will have nothing to watch besides football and competition in mixed martial arts, which, despite the name, is not art. This is the work of the actors is to reincarnate in people who are not like us, to give us the opportunity to feel what it’s like. This year was a lot like acting jobs, but one particularly stuck with me. Not because they were good. But this speech had the effect and did the job, forced the audience to which it was calculated, to laugh. The man who had the opportunity to hold the most respected office in the coun try, portrayed a reporter with disabilities, whom he by definition is superior in privileges and opportunities to fight back. It broke my heart, as it was not a movie, but real life” (referring to Donald trump, sparodiroval reporter with disabilities Serge of Kovaleski).
