Stanislavsky and Method Acting
The Arrival of Method Acting on TV
Method acting made a remarkably early impact on television performance. In the 1950's stage-trained actors and theatrical productions were imported into television to be broadcast live. In one of the very first examples of the Method on television, Rod Steiger, featured here, brought the title role of Marty to life on Philco Television Playhouse May 24, 1953. Steiger trained under Lee Strasberg and Stella Adler at the Actors Studio alongside Marlin Brando.
