Say what? Now, I’m no Hollywood hot shot or anything, but really?
The Canyons filmmaker, Paul Schrader, compared the two stars in a piece for the site, Film Comment, and says Lindsay came out on top for her acting skills: “I think Lohan has more natural acting talent than Monroe did, but, like Monroe, her weakness is her inability to fake it. She feels she must be experiencing an emotion in order to play it. This leads to all sorts of emotional turmoil, not to mention on-set delays and melodrama.”
But, Paul does admit that working with Linds was not at all a walk in the park but says it was still a “treat”.
“All the drama, the mishegas, all the stress—that means little. A director can shoot around misbehavior. He can’t shoot around lack of charisma.”
In my opinion, Marilyn will always be a classic. LiLo has nothing on her.
