Overacting
Overacting (also referred to as hamming or mugging) refers to acting that is exaggerated. Overacting can be viewed positively or negatively. It is sometimes known as "chewing the scenery". Uses Some roles require overly-exaggerated character acting, particularly those in comedy films. For example, the breakthrough roles of Jim Carrey in '' Ace Ventura: Pet Detective'' and '' The Mask'' (both 1994) saw him portray the lead characters in a very flamboyant fashion, as the script required. He has since played several "straight" roles. Overacting may be used to portray an outlandish character, or to stress the evil characteristics of a villain. Actor Gary Oldman was almost typecast as an anti-social personality early in his screen career: the necessity to express villainous characters in an overtly physical manner led to the cultivation of a "big" acting style that incorporated projection skills acquired during his stage training. Oldman noted that he has given "over-the-top" perform ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
