CORRELATION OF PERSONAL AND CREATIVE BEGINNING IN CREATING OF THE ACTOR’S IMAGE
DOI: 10.23951/2312-7899-2018-1-120-133
The article analyzes individual semantic structures that have an external and internal nature and help in the process of creating an actor’s image. The author is interested in precisely the problem associated with determining the place of the actor’s personality in his screen character. We can formulate some aspects of the actor’s influence on the consciousness and lifestyle of the viewer and society on the example of documentary films about three famous actors. The specificity of the actor’s personality becomes an part integral of his screen hero. The analysis of the films reveals the opportunity to explain and prove that Cary Grant creates on the screen an image that he would like to be in reality, while Jean-Paul Belmondo projects his human credo onto his screen character, and Heath Ledger ceases to exist as a person in each role, dissolving into it. The semantic core of “alter ego” in the screen image is filled with meaning depending on the internal settings of each, that is, it is purely individual, it is inevitable in the profession of a movie actor.
Keywords: the Hollywood star, inner and outer transformation, duality, the process of getting into the image, the screen image, the romantic hero type
