I'm not exactly sure if one can ever really master the craft of acting. It's too unique and individual, and one persons way of mastering it is absolutely not the same for everyone else. If it is the same as someone else, then it's not right.
I don't understand what it is that makes someone a good performer. I don't really care, and I don't want to find out. Let's al just leave the mystery of it alone and accept it for what it is.
