Of course, the photoplayer must somewhat exaggerate the natural expression.

The whole rhythm and intensity of his gestures must be more marked than it would be with actors who accompany their movements by spoken words and who express the meaning of their thoughts and feelings by the content of what they say.

Nevertheless the photoplayer uses the regular channels of mental discharge.

He acts simply as a very emotional person might act.

But the actor who plays in a pantomime cannot be satisfied with that.
