The Soapie Police

Pallance Dladla is a drama king

Few actors can pull off being vulnerable, dramatic, emotional and tearful in one scene. For episode after episode. Because men are not as emotional as women. Even if they are, they hardly cry. And we forgive them, and don't judge them as harshly as we do women.

So, when we get a rare beast with a vulnerability that captures our heart, we want to keep it all to ourselves, and not be caught crying on a Friday evening (we almost get mad at Mr. Dladla for making us cry).

Because in that scene where he confronts a man that molested him or cries over his dad's appearance, we shed a tear. It got me wanna delete my blog about his terrible acting in Rhythm City or how he was a shadow in Isibaya.

This short guy, this muscled tearful beast of a man should leave soapies and stick to dramas. Maybe actors are secretly just as impatient when script writers drag stories for years and years. Maybe it messes with their creativity. Like a man who can't handle a long term commitment.

Thank you Mr. Dladla.
