[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 85155, member: 27"] I used to think her plodding, quiet style was not an acting choice--but that this was just how she behaved on screen. Some actors are scared to move from their "mark" (the place the director wants them to stand for the cameras), and lord knows the show doesn't have time for re-shoots. That all went out the window during Sam's all-too-brief romance with Patrick Drake, though, because suddenly Monaco was animated, even[I] happy [/I]on screen. Others also commented on how she suddenly had 'come alive' in that story, and the minute they decided to bring back 'Jason' (Jake Doe) she seemed to slip back into the slower mode we'd seen before. This made me decide her sleepwalking type of performing is just how Monaco chooses to play Sam, and perhaps her un-Sam-like behavior with Patrick was just Monaco enjoying having someone other than Burton or Easton to play against. Maybe she had the hots for Jason Thompson. :eek: [/QUOTE]
