"Passion, kindness, gratitude, discipline, and a full knowledge that we are here to serve, not to gain power and not to be better than anybody else. Because there's no one like us in the universe. There's only one you, one me, and we have one thing that no one else has, and that's us. And when you make the most of it, that goes into the world...."

Larry Moss is the most esteemed acting coach today and rightfully is celebrated for his profound understanding of human nature and his unparalleled ability to convey this to his students. His teaching transcends traditional methods, delving deeply into the psychological and emotional aspects of characters, thereby enabling actors to connect authentically with their roles. Moss's approach is rooted in empathy and a keen perception of the intricacies of human behavior, which he imparts with passion and precision. Through his methods, Larry inspires a sense of discipline and emotional authenticity, encouraging a reconnection with the raw, primal elements of human experience that language and art strive to capture. His perspective serves as a beacon of hope and a reminder of the profound impact that dedicated practice and deep emotional engagement can have on an individual's growth and fulfillment. His dedication to fostering an environment where actors can explore and embrace their vulnerabilities has made him a revered figure in the acting community, earning him accolades and the admiration of both emerging talents and established stars. Through his insightful guidance, Moss has not only shaped countless successful careers but also enriched the art of acting itself, underscoring the vital role of humanity in performance. His exercises, such as the enunciation practice with "Peter Piper," are designed to bring language to life, making it an extension of the actor's emotional experience. Moss's profound respect for the power of language and his encouragement for actors to engage with great literature and plays reflect his belief that understanding and expressing deep human emotions are at the heart of compelling performances. Thank you for this video where we can see and feel the heart of Larry Moss.

This is the most eye opening, heartwarming and just plain beautiful video I have ever seen. As a young adult I think it’s very easy to get caught up in social media and self presentation that we forget to just take a moment. One of the most prominent things said for me is “I look like I look, but I feel and act how I choose to” or something to that effect. This message was truly inspiring and Rudy you are a gift to this generation, you have the beautiful looks but you also have a pure heart and soul and that shines through in your work. I hope you realise how incredible you are and how much people all around the world adore you not just for your looks but for your outlook on life, for your attitude towards the world, nature and trying to preserve this beautiful planet. I am so incredibly proud and grateful for you. Thank you.

What made Brando great was his incredible intelligence, gift for mimicry (which in some cases is a huge weapon in your arsenal and his range of emotions was soo big. He lived a truly interesting life filled with hardship, comfort & ups and downs. My theory is that he could say words and immediately connect em to his feelings and why own anything he soo effortlessly. To me, probably the goat.

Wow ❤

You have again and again change my morning my day my week my moments ! I speak so much off all of this in my acting class in Guadalajara, Mexico, we are a world away! I took classes with Stella before she past and I continue to cry I never thought I would be in Mexico teaching after working for 40 years in our industry! It’s a different giving the circumstances are different our challenges seem different but we all are in the same ocean right next to each other different Noas arks but the same ocean the same sky above, humanity brings the possibilities of our Direction! Yes we are all starving for contact! I am a single mom with two adolescents and many many students searching for life passion direction humanity discipline and I begin all this at 13 working with David Lynch and he took me to Federico García Lorca at 14 and that took me to run away from my mother after deciding to live to exist away from from those who wanted to explode my sensuality at 15 by putting a price to my womanhood. So I came to Los Angeles the city that birth me. And now your words take ma to the core of my own existence, How do I find the courage to continue to act and teach this acting Film Theatre work that save my life and that I love du much, because is what I know best it’s my service to this world and the legacy I am living to my children and my students generations and yes they come in all Ages from 15 to 60 … But I need to ask God every single day; God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Specifically at night when the world and the sky shuts through 30:53 the window. Thank you Larry and Thank you Rudy For giving all of us a possibility of Passion. And yes Rudy take it, take it all you have the whole world for you to give a great service to this need it Humanity that needs it so much. And If I may ask you to see a great film from a great Master of Cinema Mr Wim Wenders a great human who I respect a lot,he once directed me. But plead if you can go see A Perfect Day by Wim Wenders.

John Patrick Shanley it’s at life today and well. He was just in my acting class vía Zoom in Guadalajara Mexico. He is writing and his voice it’s at life. He told me that we Mexicans need to tell our real every day stories to enrich the heart of America and the states. We work a lot on his plays and Tennessee’s plays as well as Millers, Mamet, Hemingway…. Etc

Thank you so much for uploading this! Every time I hear or attend a class with Larry, I’m always a bucket of tears. Larry speaks to the humanity in ALL of us. I look forward to seeing him in New York again.
