An interview with Kristian Alfonso on pill popping hope, Hope’s reasons for moving out and the break-up of Bo & Hope, working with Doc. Baker and how Frances’ death affected the cast. It appears Ciera’s tear was not in the script but the little actresses reaction to Hope’s eulogy
some pointers on how to shed a tear, because she sure did have trouble showing any on her own. I read that it has always been difficult for Kristian to cry real tears, and Alice’s story line was no exception for her. I was amazed at how much she cried, but I did not see any tears. I have seen her cry (Zack’s death scenes, for instance), but she couldn’t seem to produce them for Alice’s story line.
had greived for Alice already when she did pass – we all had Kleenex out though during the scene, so I’m not sure…
I have been that way my entire life. I shed one small tear at my brother’s funeral and none at my Dad’s (and since I was a Daddy’s girl, it wasn’t because of lack of love). And none at sister’s or other brother’s funerals. I just don’t seem to bring up any tears. I did, however, cry a lot when mom died and have no idea why the difference. But let me see a movie, or even a commercial, and the waterworks begin, especially if it concerns a dog. And I’ve cried enough tears watching Days that I could water the entire front yard. So it comes down to…real life – zip; pretend – no problemo.
Okay, Dr. Freud, this couch?
I’m looking in a mirror when you described the why and when of the tears…I think folks are more the same than they have differences…
there are easy ways to produce tears, even if you don’t have the camera cut away to use artificial tears. I saw on a TV special how they do things in the movies and the one way to produce tears was to blow over onion juice into the actor’s eyes. That way they can continue the shot uninterrupted and it looks like they’ve come on naturally. Sneaky little devils.
And I predict and long successful soap life for Ciera if she can cry like that. She’s sure a good little actor, isn’t she?
