As an actor – not an artiste, as in the entertainment sense – one will always face the criticism of being a hypocrite. But this term has been intellectually interrogated by David Runciman, turning the word Hypocrisy on its head, opening new perspectives (http://press.princeton.edu/titles/8605.html) I personally would like to see acting – as part of human function – to be a vehicle to transmit information and promote humanity.
