    He knows he is a good actor, but he also knows that there are loads of other brilliant actors in Theaters and small Movies and TVShows all over the world that simply hadn’t had the luck to be discovered by Hollywood.

      They're small because nobody watches them. Nobody watches them because they's nothing interesting about them. It has very little to do with luck. If after many years in the business an actor couldn't manage to get a decent role it means he's not a good actor.

      ​​​@@ekklesiast ahhhhh no, there are plenty of 'good' actors out there, there's a difference between good and great...he is an amazing actor but there are alot of other factors that go into 'making it' in Hollywood and one of them is luck.

      @@delretadonaldson No, that's a myth. Hard work and persistency makes luck irrelevant. It's simple math, if your chances are 1% then it takes 100 attempts to succeed.
      In reality if you're a great actor your chances are much higher. Great actors are highly valuable because they're rare and hard to find.

    • @ekklesiast
      @ekklesiast День назад

      An opportunity is a matter of persistency, not luck. One or two failed auditions can be attributed to bad luck. One hundred means you're a bad actor. Luck has very little to do with that.

    It must be said: Christoph Waltz is hands-down one of the most attractive men in entertainment. Pleasing aesthetics aside, much of his intense appeal is owing to those intangible qualities we typically bundle up as “charisma”, but his magnetism isn’t sullied by the inauthenticity and performative elements that the label implies.

  • @goldfishy
    @goldfishy 21 час назад

    Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. Without either than luck will not come into existence. And to claim luck for your achievements is a disservice to the hard work that is required for preparation, and the continuous watchful eye that is needed to spot opportunity. To claim you achieve something through luck is a disservice to your own effort and the efforts of everyone else who found “luck”. It makes people lazy and resentful.

    I think another way to say.Luck is circumstances in your life that have worked out in your benefit that you did not instigate. Everybody is presented with moments in their life that they can turn into something that would appear to be lucky, but if you're not perceptive to the moment, then you'll never know.
