You either have it, or you don't. If it isn't there, you have to find some way to fake it. Or you can make it. Making it is one of the hardest cinematic duties to perform. When it is done correctly, it is uncanny. The camera never lies. When you fake it correctly, and people can't notice it, it is the greatest and most rewarding feeling in the world. They might bitch about exposure, or sound, but if they are complaining about these details, and they didn't notice the chemistry, which is the most important part of the frame (excluding delivery) you did your job. Such chemistry didn't need to be made yesterday. Really, it wasn't even explained. Sophia showed up on set, and displayed ten years of acting experience in two hours. Deliveries were discussed, and understood immediately. The point is that none of the actors involved in this project need to be explained chemistry; it is second nature. They are one with the script; and that is a beautiful thing. Until next time...
