[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's funny people are dismissing Zendaya as just being beautiful and not a great acting talent, as though looks aren't central to acting in movies. Zendaya has unusually cinematic looks, and they match her on-screen personality well. She will get roles because directors will look at her and see how she fits perfectly into shots. This is also a huge part of Chalamet's appeal. Brad Pitt and George Clooney built entire careers on this ability. In movies, sometimes acting is the rare ability to cut a very specific figure in a very specific shot in a way that evokes exactly the mood and feeling the director wants to evoke. This is why ugly or generic looking people don't become movie stars. They don't all have to be classic beauties, but they need to be striking and interesting to look at. They need to be able work their angles on camera and know how to stand and sit in a way that will read on camera. Like physicality is half of acting, sorry. It is a rare talent who can transcend appearance on acting skill alone. Even someone like Olivia Coman is using her physicality and appearance to deliver performances. Like Zendaya, she knows how she looks on camera and how to angle her face and use expression to convey mood and emotion.[/quote] This is where the British and Australian actresses outdo the Americans, they have both.[/quote]
