Lies in... the Other Kind of Lines


    It's certainly not considered fictional if you have people pose for a photograph, though they would not naturally be doing that if they weren't getting their picture taken. What about actors? If you place a camera in front of actors acting, could the result be considered a work of fiction? What if you videotaped it? Is that fiction? Or just the truth of people lying?

   Acting is fiction, and a form of lying. Overacting, though? It could be said just a magnification of what's already there. So lies come in words. Only in declarative statements, though. Questions can't be lies; they can only be misleading.
