<p>There is a real issue here in defining “success” in acting. Maybe some people will only see famous movie stars as “successful” but I think that is a terrible insult to all of the hundreds if not thousands of wonderful, talented, hard-working and well-regarded actors all over America who do not obtain “household name” status.</p>
<p>People can think what they want, but I am sad to see this myth propagated on a forum which is supposed to support young people starting out in their education/passion/career path. </p>
<p>Anyway, who says the “fastest, easiest path” is necessarily the best?</p>
