The Talented Actor Needs Craft. When You Do A Stage Play, You Do It Once Each Night In Chronological Order. In A Film You're Going To Wind Up Doing A Scene 15-20 Times, Just By The Nature Of The Process. If I Tell You A Joke Once, It's Funny. The More Times I Tell, The Less Funny It Is. How Do You Get To The Point Where You Can Laugh Again? You Also May Have To Cry Again And Again.

People Are In Denial All The Time, Hiding Things. If I Tell You A Racist Or Dirty Joke And You Laugh, You're Telling Me Something About Yourself, Which You Don't Want To Reveal.
