Thread: why do actors scream "stella" dramaticaly when auditioning?

where does that come from

well, i am and actor and ive seen that happen. all i can think of is that it came from a soap opera or something.

"Streetcar Named Desire", Marlon Brando standing in the street, screaming for his wife after having a steamy affair with Vivien Leigh: "STELLLLLLAAAAAAAAA!!!" It's supposed to be emoting at it's finest :-) Most guys just sound like they're getting ready to punch someone!

ANY actor worth their salt trained in the last 50 years knows this scene!

Here's the clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhXFInYM7bo
