Customer comments on this selection.
 A Classic
This book is a classic. I should be read by everyone interested in a career in acting. I'm a Talent Manager and partner in www.actinglink.com and I recommend this book to everyone of my clients. It's been called "the textbook for aspiring actors". If you are interested in acting but not sure where to start, I would strongly suggest starting with this book.

Great Book
As an actor, I found this book to very helpful with ways to aproach acting.
a drama students must read!!!!!
Uta Hagen is fabulous, according to my daughter. Her drama teacher loaned her the book and she wore it out. She now has a new one of her own and thinks all drama students need to read this.
indispensible, actors bible...
this is the first book I ever read on acting just as I was about to embark on my first acting lesson, oh, so many years ago. any beginner, pro or dabbler would enhance themselves by reading this..Respect For Acting is the title, respect is the key, to respect your art, your discipline, your craft..you won't find everything you need in here, no book can do that for you that comes from experience but this is the finest book on acting you might ever read, right up there with Stanislavsky's books and a few others...this opened up the world of acting for me and showed what was expected of me and it's lessons still ring true after over 20 years of acting..
 Uta Hagen is a better actress than a writer; however...
...fortunately for anyone who might want the benefit of some of the late Ms. Hagen's acting advice, her writing improved enormously and her second book 'A Challenge For The Actor' (published in 1991) shows her capacity to grow as a scribe as well as a thespian. I would recommend that an aspiring acting student, especially one who is early in his or her career purchase 'A Challenge For The Actor' instead of 'Respect For Acting' as is 'A Challenge For The Actor' far less muddled and obtuse than 'Respect For Acting'
