no you fucking idiot. a method actor is an actor who refused to break chrachter throughout the duration of the filming, off scene, on scene, whatever. they do this to completley get a sense of how the charachter thinks, feels, acts, responds, etc.. it can be dangerous sometimes, and it takes a shitload of commitment. generally, the best actors are method actors. marlon brando arguably started it, others are deniro, daniel day lewis (he is super intense about it, and incidentially hes the best actor alive), and now guys like bale, and ledger (well, not anymore obviously).
anyways, i heard bale got arrested, buit he attacked his family? what the fuck. watchful protector my ass.
