One important aspect of performance is accent. In Hollywood films, accent is never neutral; it is valueladen(价值承载的) and highly significant. Since accents are associated with certain racial, national, ethic or regional groups, they can be used as a shortcut for expressing character.

The opposition character (antagonist) is the character who opposes the intentions of the protagonist; antagonists stand in the way of protagonists and create obstacles for them.

Presentational style and representational style are corresponding to the ―two bodies‖ of the actor and the character. Presentational style is the performance style that emphasizes the realty of the actor .


Representational style is the style that downplays the reality of the actor , as the actor does not present himself but instead represents the character he is playing. Method acting and star system are the extreme forms of these two performance style.


Method acting sought to employ the personality of the actor as a kind of psychical resource in the construction and performance of the fictional role. The Method aims at producing an ―authentic‖ performance by subordinating the actor’s personality to that of the character.
