Re: What constitutes 'good acting' for you?

[(Anonymous)]

I would argue that what you're describing here is screen presence, and that it is a completely different thing to being a good actor. Acting is a skill, screen presence is a happenstance.

NAYRT
I agree, although I wouldn't say it's exactly happenstance. I think there are some people who (through skill) learn to be charming and are therefore fun to watch, but can't/don't really act compellingly (in the sense of embodying varied characters and making them believable).

Re: What constitutes 'good acting' for you?

[(Anonymous)]

I guess you can probably learn it, but there are definitely people who are just born with 'it'.

Then there are the people with screen presence but a limited acting range, and the ability to choose roles that let them work within that range. I'm thinking Robin Williams, Ah-nold, Keanu Reeves (though I've heard some people say Reeves has a wide range. I haven't seen it myself).
