Who do you think you are? I am
Nah real shit..cause check it out.
Bokeem Woodbine consistently plays characters that act on impulse. Now, if you know someone that acts on impulse. You know that they don’t understand their motivations, they feel it and go.
So Bokeem plays these characters but at the same time. In the movies on some wild shit. He verbalizes his feelings behind his impulses.
Like what a person in that situation would feel underneath it all but at the same time think it’s cause of some other shit. Like they are jealous so they slashed your tires. But really feel abandoned and they confuse it wit jealously. His character will actually verbalize the sub conscious part of being impulsive.
He’ll do some shit and know exactly why he’s doing it, even though when he does it. It’s completely on impulse. It’s completely some shit that someone who did it, wouldn’t have thought about why they did it. They just do it and that’s why it’s some stupid shit to do.
Now..because those two things are such a contradiction. That would be hard to act out, that person would almost seem truly cognizant and autistic at the same time. They would be noticeably off their shit, and this is how all his characters seem.
So this cat either understands the assignment so well that he plays an individual that is a living oxymoron, so much so that your brain just can’t accept that this person is real, so it appears like it’s bad acting.
Or he’s a bad actor, and I used to say bad actor. But I’ve seen him in interviews, and I’m leaning more towards the fact that this nigga is such a great actor that he can play characters that have no template and we are watching this man create it right before our eyes.
