"James observed classes but did not participate, he couldn't bear to have his performance criticized by the class, he said 'if I let them dissect me like a rabbit in a laboratory, I might not be able to produce again.' At the actors' studio he studied method acting, where an actor learns to utilize every emotion from their real life in their dramatic roles, although this line between acting and life was deliberately left ambiguous, students were warned never to confuse the two, Jimmy repeatedly violated this rule, he succumbed to what the method called the existential fallacy of confusing himself with his creation, it gave a sense of urgency and risk to all his roles"
