Mattmac's acting in TD will never not be insane to me, bcs its probably the only acting that genuinely fully made me think, yeah he completely escaped into the role. It's not that there's not any other actors out there that I think are amazing, but it's still often hard for me for the most part to separate the actor and their roles, especially if I've seen a lot of their work. Meanwhile, even just looking at a still of Rust, it's so hard for me to perceive, oh wait that's not a real guy?? Rust isn't out there???

#if this makes sense lmao #idk its so odd bcs ive watched interstellar so many times more times and it literally came out the same year #yet it doesnt affect my perception at all as it often does w most other actors i like when i watch other works of theirs #aaghhhhh like im not saying mattmac is the BEST actor of all time and that everyone else is inferior #theres a lot of roles i can think of that were amazing and that i fully bought into #rather theres no other character i can think of where i genuinely get baffled when i remember theyre not real #if that makes sense?? like ill usually still look at a character and their actor is in the back of my mind #like saying wow their acting is so good in this!!#meanwhile w td im like ...wow rust is such a cool guy hes so fascinating. wait wdym mattmac played him #i feel deranged saying this cause idk if im getting my point sdkjhfs #ig part of it is the fact that td covers a good portion of his life so you see a lot of aspects of his character #but he just feels so REAL to me #as i said even looking at screencaps i cant think of him as mattmac. he IS rust. thats some guy!!!! that exists!!!#id say the acting in td is generally really amazing BUT #i realized since i last watched it some actor in it was in a comedy show i watched which completely influenced my perception of that actor #so when i saw his face w that new context i couldnt buy his character at all anymore bcs he was just that dude from the other show #meanwhile ive watched a lot of mattmacs stuff before and after yet ive never though of rust when seeing him in another role or vice versa #AAAHHHHHH MAN. sorry i just really love that show and i think rust will forever be some actual person to me. hes out there i swear #idk the picture thing is especially so odd bcs as i said interstellar is from the same year and he has a pretty similar look #yet im still like. no those are clearly two different people. and i think of mattmac when i watch interstellar but not td so ?????#thought let me be clear his acting in interstellar is also amazing and real to me.#just not in the way where he becomes a real indistinguishable person to me #anyways. cough cough. i have a problem.#catie.rambling.txt #true detective
