"Frankincense" is a word in ENGLISH
A fragrant, aromatic resin, or gum resin, burned as
an incense in religious rites or for medicinal fumigation. The best
kinds now come from East Indian trees, of the genus Boswellia; a
commoner sort, from the Norway spruce (Abies excelsa) and other
coniferous trees. The frankincense of the ancient Jews is still
unidentified.
To me, acting used to be just, 'Get my face out there, get girls, make a little bit of money, make my mom proud.' It was just like sports. But there were moments in 'Moonlight' that I really felt like I had to know why he is the way he is. Or just people in general - why this person walks around with a frown on their face instead of a smile.
