Synopsis 簡介
七情上面未必就是好戲，淚流滿面可能只是濫情做作，聲嘶力竭不一定會令觀眾感動……一般電視電影，充斥著大量矯情粗糙的劣質演技，陳腔濫調的表演令觀眾納悶嘲笑。
著名舞台劇導演及老師甄詠蓓，累積多年獨門教學經驗，首次把課堂搬上銀幕， 記錄了她的學生們，包括一眾演技派高手和初哥、影后或素人，赤裸裸地分享演員道路上的苦與痛，在Bad Acting 中如何打滾掙扎和堅持，矢志成為一位出色的演員，活出自己的藝術人生。這段期間，我們還是要堅強互勉，用創作的力量共渡時艱。本片全長82 分鐘。

Stuffing the face with unimaginable expressions, tears streaming down the cheeks like a waterfall, hysterical cries as if coming from a neurotic…..
These “phenomena” are literally the “bad acting” that is overwhelming our movies today – loud, over the top, crude, vulgar, full of ridiculed cliches that suffocate the audience….the list goes on. The illustrious Stage Opera Director and Lecturer, Olivia Yan Wing Pui, with years of distinct teaching expertise and experience, transform her classroom into the theatre. She documents her students comprising celebrated artists and newbies, award-winning actresses or laypersons, who, in Bad Acting, forthrightly share their struggles and pains, persistence and devotion, on their objective of becoming top-notch artists in their acting careers. Let us embrace difficult times in support of each other’s perseverance and faith in the power of creativity. This film is 82 minutes long.
