About this title: "This fascinating and detailed book about acting is Miss Hagen's credo, the accumulated wisdom of her years spent in intimate communion with her art. It is at once the voicing of her exacting standards for herself and those she teaches, and an explanation of the means to the end. For those unable to avail themselves of her personal tutelage, her book is the best substitute." - Publishers Weekly "Uta Hagen's Respect for Acting is not only pitched on a high artistic level but it is full of homely, practical information by a superb craftswoman.

"I read this book back in 1993. I remember liking it, but I can only commit to three stars until I read it again. It's been a long time and I've learned a lot since then."
"In my opinion, to make it short and sweet, this is the best damn book EVER written on acting. Uta = goddess of acting.

Read it and weep, actors!"
