Hitchcock’s infamous reference to actors as cattle was the inspiration for an online article which modestly proposes that, in order to improve critical judgment of their performances, actors be categorized as "Good and Bad Cattle." Although the approach is humorous and the argument is tongue-in-cheek, the article actually deals with some important issues about film acting, such as the role of the film star in movie marketing, the perils of typecasting and miscasting, the politics of acting awards, and the difficulty of assessing performances.

I recently bought a copy of American Music Press and was really surprised at how it was mostly all interviews and articles with actual rock bands and not actors and teen pop stars. Are there any other mags like this? Also I’m in New york and pretty much get publishings from all over the world so feel free to recommend international magazines .. Thanks
