I cannot comment expertly on acting in Europe, although I love the fact that an actor in England can do a television show, a movie, and a season in rep in one year, and there is apparently no caste system between "TV actors" and "the Stage". In America there is still a bit of the caste system between "TV actors" and "Movie actors" (and now between them and "People from Reality TV Shows"). Today, young actors usually learn their chops and pay their dues by doing theatre. But few return to the stage once they've started working in films. In another generation or two, who will be the illegitimate children of whom?
