I Don't Know How I Absorb Things,

There's A Certain Pattern That Exists With Geniuses - An Eccentricity, A Lack Of Social Graces And An Inability To Really Communicate With Mere Mortals.

Lord Of The Rings Fandom Was Massive, Worldwide, Entrenched. Generally It Had Been Part Of The Fans' Life All Their Life, Because They Had It Read To Them As Children; They'd Become Tolkien Students.

'fringe' Is Essentially A Love Story, So The Scenes Where Walter Had Close Connection With Peter, But Also With Anna's Character Or Jasika's Character, Were Very Special To Me.

[on Playing Walter] It Was Wonderful To Be Able To Play A Character Who Had So Many Colors And Who Was Able To Play Comedy, To Play Incredibly Vulnerable, Which He Did A Lot Of The Time, To Play The Love Story, And To Play The Relationship With The Son, Which Is Quite Unusual. That's A Gift To Me, As An Actor. It Was Like Everything You Could Possibly Hope For, Over Five Years. So, I Was A Very Lucky Actor.

I Don't Know How I Absorb Things, But I Do. I Just Absorb Them. I Don't Over Read The Script, And I Don't Really Ever Spend Much Time Learning It.
