THE METHOD OF THE VALANGA DI VITA

WHAT IS A METHOD, AND WHAT IS THE PARTICULAR METHOD OF THIS COMPANY?

5. the Method, Also called Stanislavski Method, Stanislavski System. a theory and technique of acting in which the performer identifies with the character to be portrayed and renders the part in a naturalistic, nondeclamatory, and highly individualized manner.

JOB FIVE: APPLY THE METHOD

A method is different than either a mentor or money.
A mentor leads the way. Money is a tool. A method is the game plan.
All three are necessary.
We can have all the good intentions in the world, but without the means, the example and the organization, we won't get there.

EDUCATION IN "THE PROFESSIONAL"

The story of The Professional is educational all by itself, without ever saying so in so many words.
It shows us the condition of our love-starved and deranged society, for those of us who are willing to open our eyes.
And it also gives us hope,
because it shows us that sacrificial love, the unconditional declaration of infinite mercy,
IS is the greatest and most potent of all human gestures.
It is the way to hope and healing for our world.

MATILDA'S SECONDARY EDUCATION

If Leon gave Matilda the unutterable strength of his primary education, that is mercy, he also told her to go to Tony's and wait for him there.
Tony advised Matilda to go back to school.
And she returned to the Spencer School for Troubled Girls, where, in the strength of the truth which Leon had given her, she told a little bit of the truth to the headmistress.
AMID THE INSTABILITY OF MATILDA'S EXISTENCE,
SHE MANAGED TO BRIEFLY ATTEND SCHOOL IN WILDWOOD, NEW JERSEY BEFORE HER FAMILY WAS KILLED.
WHEN HER OFFER TO TAKE LEON"S PLACE AS THE NEIGHBORHOOD CLEANER IS TURNED DOWN BY TONY,
MATILDA TAKES HER STUFFED BUNNY AND THE PRECIOUS PLANT AND HEADS BACK TO SCHOOL

IT IS SIGNIFICANT THAT MATILDA PLANTED LEON'S CHINESE EVERGREEN IN THE SCHOOL'S GREEN CAMPUS UPON ARRIVAL,
SPEAKING TO THE PLANT AS IF SOMEHOW LEON COULD HEAR.

EDUCATION AT THE VALANGA DI VITA.

A GOOD EDUCATION IS A REMEDY FOR MENTAL ILLNESS.
We can learn to be psychologically healthy just as we can learn to be physically healthy.
It's not magic, though at times it may seem mysterious,that is because we need more education of the right kind.
Many people who see The Professional weep for Leon, and wish that he could rise.
If we make proper use of the educational method, we can avenge Leon, not with grenades, but with a more noble world, where Stansfield too is hopeful enough to live.

EDUCATION SHOULD BE UNIVERSAL AND UNIFIED,
BECAUSE WE ALL NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IS GOING ON IN THE WORLD, AND WHY WE ARE HERE.
MANY TIMES, EDUCATION IS FRAGMENTED AND ITS HIGHER MEANING AND RELATIONSHIP TO THE WHOLE WORLD IS LOST.
LEON AND STANSFIELD CANCELLED EACH OTHER OUT SO THAT MATILDA COULD GO TO SCHOOL, BUT IT DOESN"T HAVE TO BE THAT WAY.
TRUE EDUCATION IS LIKE A LIGHT, AND LEON CAN FOLLOW IT AWAY FROM WEAPONRY, AND STANSFIELD CAN FOLLOW IT AWAY FROM INSANITY.
