Robert De Niro is the actor teachers mean when they say “commit more.” From gaining weight for Raging Bull, to driving a real New York cab for Taxi Driver, to living in Sicily for The Godfather Part II, he built a reputation for extreme preparation. But underneath the legend is something more useful: a clear, repeatable way of preparing, watching, and then almost vanishing in plain sight on camera.
This episode breaks down how De Niro actually does it. We start with his early life in New York, studying with Stella Adler and Lee Strasberg, and how he built characters from environment and behavior instead of abstract emotion. Then we track Young Vito Corleone in The Godfather Part II, Travis Bickle in Taxi Driver, Jake LaMotta in Raging Bull, Rupert Pupkin in The King of Comedy, Jimmy Conway in Goodfellas, and his later minimal work in films like The Irishman and Killers of the Flower Moon.
Along the way, we pull concrete acting lessons you can steal: using preparation as your foundation, researching people instead of trivia, letting improvisation grow from serious prep, matching physical transformation to inner life, and learning to underplay so the camera comes to you.
