Character Evaluation
Michael Shannon has always adhered to good professional ethics and strict requirements for himself. He strives for perfection in every work he shoots. He likes to switch back and forth between the stage and the camera. He will also readily accept some of the challenges encountered in filmmaking. Regardless of the genre of the movie and the size of his characters, Michael Shannon's characters have an obvious trait-these characters are very lively, as if this person really exists outside the screen. Some of the characters he has played have a sense of danger, while others are more withdrawn. They are always uncomfortable. It may be because of the environment, or because of the people around, and some are because of problems with their self-recognition .
