It must be on par with the fingernails on blackboard pitch because I think I'm about to throw something at her. It is never good to be overly self-conscious, but part of maturity is recognizing the effect you have on the world, and trying to, if not make life easier for others, than at least to not make life more difficult for others. On stage for instance, an actor can absolutely be locked up with watching himself all the time, and thus will never really be free or commit himself to the reality of the world he's trying to create and struggle within. I've seen it happen a million times. Actors have to find a balance between self-involvement, involvement with others, and a general awareness of the world around them and their place in it.
Same thing goes for everyone.
Just open your eyes a bit, people. I'm just finishing reading a book by trash author Anne River Siddons for work. Anyway, when I got the book I couldn't remember if I knew of her name because she was good or bad, so I looked at her jacket photo. Producer Guy just called from his car after leaving the WB pitch. I know what they mean, but am not sure I agree.
