Gambling professionals have lost their grip on childhood

It is not the theatre or film actors who retain the regenerative ability to forget themselves through these raw and immediate identities. Professional actors are as degraded as anyone in this respect. Playing for real once grown up seems to be the prerogative of only sports, sexual or warlike activities. For the rest, what would concern a possible (re)incarnation of our childhood, naturally wild and unmanageable, is systematically relegated as a toxic residue to the depths of our mature and hindered bodies.
