Abstract

The fictional character has suffered full emptying and fragmentation processes during the 20th century cinema. Actor/character interchangeability was among the several
experimental cinematic procedures of casting management that laid emphasis on character crisis. This work intends to analyze how these procedures of actor/character interchangeability expressed themselves in experimental film during
four moments in which they appear most prominently: the hardened form of the experimental work of art; several acting styles, loss of the authority of the discourse and the Brechtian estrangement procedure.
