I just noticed this and many others probably realized this already!

Example of subtle Acting with only the face!
Hugh Laurie casting for House

Our facial expressions are hardwired into all of us!Many scientific blind fold tests proved this! their genetic for the most part! :D

what Hugh Laurie is doing is exagerating his expressions just enough to be believable!
- you couldnt look anymore alive than him well he is sitting still and only moving his head to the emotions he is portraying! He litrally doesnt stop moving through the whole video!


if anyone else has any clips of actors doing over exagerated movement that is interesting post it here if youd like :D

F. Murray Abraham did a brilliant performance in Amadeus and spoke so much with his face. It's no wonder he won the Oscar that year. This scene has one of my favorite lines from a movie..."I was staring through the cage of those meticulous ink strokes at an absolute beauty." I wish they would re-release this again in theatres. It was beautiful to watch on the big screen.
