Jessica Alba: Gode skuespillere har ikke brug for manuskripter

Skuespillerinden kritiseres for udtalelse.

Jessica Alba udtalte for nylig til Elle Magazine, at gode skuespillere ikke har behov for manuskripter:

"Good actors never use the script unless it's amazing writing. All the good actors I’ve worked with, they all say whatever they want to say."

Dermed prøvede hun pænt at placere sig i kategorien for gode skuespillere, men hvad hun mest af alt har fået ud af det, er en ikke helt tilfreds manuskriptforfatter fra Hollywood.

John August (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Big Fish) har nemlig ikke været lang tid om at svare på Albas udtalelse, og selvom han holder det sobert, er det ikke svært at se, hvad han mener om kommentaren.

"I have to believe she was misquoted, or excerpted in some unflattering way. Oh, Jessica. Where to start? Following your logic, you've never been in a movie with both good actors and amazing writing. That may be true, but it might hurt the feelings of David Wain, Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller. Screenwriters can be your best friends. We are pushovers for attractive people who pay attention to us. I wrote that bathtub scene in 'Big Fish' because Jessica Lange made brief eye contact with me. So if you're not getting great writing — and honestly, you're not — ask to have lunch with the screenwriter. I've seen you on interviews. You're charming. That charm could work wonders."
