Chi si ritira dal mondo, cosiddetto sociale, è il soggetto di questo bozzetto drammatico, dal titolo “Assente”. Tratta la vita di un individuo che, vicino all'età di venticinque anni, si rende conto del "vuoto" che la vita gli sta proponendo in maniera alquanto ingiustificata. È questa nuova condizione vitale che egli non sa più gestire, e che lo rende "distaccato" da tutto quello che prima lo attirava. L'antica Illusione (di quando aveva mille speranze, mille certezze, mille sogni) cede ora il posto ad una Delusione smisurata quanto la sua disperata nostalgia verso un Tempo andato e che non riesce più a ritrovare.

The first reception-based analysis of film acting, Imagining the Method investigates how popular understandings of the so-called Method—what its author Justin Rawlins calls "methodness"—created an exclusive brand for white, male actors while associating such actors with rebellion and marginalization. Drawing on extensive archival research, the book maps the forces giving shape to methodness and policing its boundaries.

Angeles quanto la notizia che una giornalista italiana aveva portato gli spaghetti a Sofia." Tutto questo accadeva nel giugno del 1957, quando Oriana Fallaci si divideva tra Roma, New York e Los Angeles per raccontare la "fabbrica dei divi". Con sguardo disincantato e l'inconfondibile stile caustico e irriverente della sua penna, Miss Fallaci, come l'apostrofava Orson Welles, a differenza di altri suoi colleghi, "sa nascondere la giornalista più agguerrita sotto la più ingannevole delle maschere femminili".
