How Michael Shannon Approaches Rage 

Love how vulnerable he is making himself in this interview!

"It's just something I know". Me too buddy, me too.

Michael Shannon is very underrated

Michael Shannon is seriously among the most underrated actors alive today

The part at the end is pretty sad. I can relate to it as far as parents in an abusive relationship. He wasn't acting. He was recreating something he saw as a kid. The nasty and overpowering, dismissing language of a man towards his wife. That's something that scarred him as a child, and he invoked it for that line. Michael, I'm glad you were at least able to make something good out of that terrible experience and it helped your career. We'll never completely heal from it, but at least there is some kind of silver lining. I'm happy for you, friend

I've never seen an actor be so open like this. 2.30 onwards is quite emotional, you can see his pain. Seems like a really nice person and an incredibly talented guy. Hope he gets more recognition for his work in future.

Ive never seen such good interviews anywhere else. This is amazing.

Michael Shannon is a brilliant actor! Fantastic interview.

he's trying to talk about some deep emotional shit and this happy ass music creeps up on him lololol great interview though

this dude got a dark past

Loved his work in Nocturnal Animals. Great guy, great actor

There's a certain grace in which Michael Shannon expresses his rage in these scenes. It's not like he approaches the rage in a certain way, he just knows about it, he is very familiar with it. He probably doesn't have to act to express it, maybe he just calls in from reserve or just redirects it.

Brilliant actor. Eats up every scene he's in.

Damn man, that one went deep

This is such a freakin awesome show, seriously good stuff.

the ending , my heart shattered

I look up to him so much

Hes friggin amazing actor

You guys deserve way more than just 8 000 views!

Good Lord, this guy is intense! Brilliant.

Beautiful actor, his work is extraordinary. Mesmerizing performances that stay with you.

Michael is an amazing actor. Very convincing in every role.im glad he's on stage and has this art for an outlet.

I don't know who this actor is, but after 3 clips ... I know I like him.

I've said that on other videos but in my humble opinion, this dude is one of the best actors around these days

He's the best. That is all.

Michael Shannon is so intriguing to me. I would love to be experience what's in his head. He seems outwardly very docile and thoughtful, but there's incredible intensity in there. What a beautiful man.

It impresses me how he is able to utilise his past experiences in his acting. It takes a lot of strength to relive what appears to be painful moments in his life to make his characters all that more believable.

Amazing! I love how he uses his pain to bring to life such riveting characters or even moments on screen.

Michael Shannon is a Forceful actor This guy is the best underrated actors ever

my new fav actor

Where can find the full interview? This man knows how to interview! I love it.

Though there wasnt much of a detailed answer to the question on how to approach rage, Shannon gave the most true answer. Sometimes you know how to the person you're playing because you have lived a similar life to the character. It's easier to play someone if you've been them.

The only other person besides my mom that I've heard call it "pop".

You guys need to see “My Son My Son What Have Ye Done?” if you haven’t yet. It’s a bizarre, unsung masterpiece. To me, one of Herzog’s greatest narrative films and it’s oddly produced by David Lynch. Something in court must’ve went down on that film because NO ONE involved in the production so far as mentions it. But, boy, what a really special movie and epic performance by Michael Shannon.

Chills.

I love this man.

Great actor.

Man you can tell Michael has been through some things.

he recently made my top 5 best actors list hes AMAZING

Brilliant actor, utterly underated, one of the best,

just watched “Bug” and i about shit myself. goddamn that left me with my mouth dropped. fucking shit, it was sickening. i loved it.

One of those rare actors who can play a character, rather than all characters being the actor.

I like this guy

Brilliant actor

Its obvious that he doesn't want to really reveal anything specific, but its real and alive and he is seeing it right there and its a can of worms, ugly worms. But he has to determine where to draw the line in self censure. I 💚 his acting

Love Michael in every role he plays. Well I hated him in 8 Mile but you’re supposed to hate him lol u know what I mean. After watching Waco and Mud and The Night Before I feel like this man can perfect any character given to him. And no he’s not a handsome man but his face has so much character that it’s a thing of beauty in a way. Ok I’m rambling.

I am so in love w/ this guy.

Nice video so amazing

PLEASE add the whole thing to Netflix please

Michael Shannon is a very Magnificent actor

Michael intimidates the hell out of me

very interesting and complicated individual...

nice smile

He was soooooooooooo good in shape of water

Y'all seen that movie Bugs?

"I WILL FIND HIIIIIIM!"

i wish the background was balck or darker

"all the pop you can drink." Nice.

wow.

oh wow! his last words there... this is such a revelation. Michael Shannon seems to be such a closed private person, i've never seen an interview where he would let an interviewer look that deep into his mindset. wow, just wow

He would make for a great Dee Dee Ramone if they ever did a Ramones biopic.

he's the anti-mcconoghey.... he's authentic

He’s like bill haders darker twin

Absolutely stole leo DiCaprio's thunder in Revolutionary Road

Just his face is psychotically epic

not into all the cuts to the interviewer

I. WILL. FIND. HIM!!!!

Wow this is a scarred man.

One of his eyes is slightly bigger than the other

THERE IS A STORM COMING!

These are HEAVILY HEAVILY HEAVILY edited and it's annoying AF. There's so much more here, but godforbid they have two second of silence, or, a natural digetic conversation.

Sooo... Michael Shannon has emotional problems?
