That is one of the best explanations I've heard for the vast difference in some actors' performances on stage vs. TV. Thanks.

The opposite is also true of course - one reason that not all film/TV actors are right for stage work is because they're so used to playing for a camera and don't instinctively know how to "play to the back row" so to speak.

That's funny because I literally sat in the back row for Three Hotels starring Richard Dreyfuss and fell asleep. It's the only time I've nodded off in a theater. He had zero stage presence and was such a snooze. Christine Lahti was fantastic though. I love her.
