Mickey Chekhov

Over the past few weeks I have been really thinking and pondering about that Michael Chekhov exercise we did and how important it can be in any piece of work. During that exercise I was reminded again of how magnificent the mind can be, and how vast our imagination is. I came across this trailer (in two parts) on youtube for a documentary entitled "Master Classes in the Michael Chekhov Technique." A lot of the people in the documentary worked with Michael in the last few years of his life. It is extremely interesting to hear what people think about his life and work, and how they use it to personalize their own work. Also, they are all using "Three Sisters" text in the exercises.
