More From Willem Dafoe

As You Get Older, You Suffer Fools Less Easily. That's Why There's All Those Cranky Character Actors. I'm An Exception. I'm A Sweetheart.

I Prefer Shooting On Location, Just Because It Always Helps You. You Go Some Place, You Put Your Life On Hold Even More Than When You've Settled In Some Place. You Can Make A New Life So It Opens Yourself Up To The Make-believe And The Imagination In A Way When You Aren't Burdened By Things That Remind You Of Your Life All The Time.

A Lot Of Critics Are Lazy. They Don't Want To Look Closely And Analyze Something For What It Is. They Take A Quick First Impression And Then Rush To Compare It To Something They've Seen Before.

First Impression

I Don't Want People To Know Anything About Me, Because That's Not Important. I'm More Interested In The Me That Takes Shape Through The Characters.
