Yep, “It”. That is not acting. Of it it is, it is the high art that Olivier could display, as in Henry V. But I can’t help thinking of FDR. Whatever one things of his polities, he had a courage that enabled him to summon strength from the very depths of his soul. Look at his last speech to Congress. He is a dying warrior, but he rises to the occasion. Our president’s admirers like to compare him with FDR. No way.
