I Feel A Moral Obligation To Speak

I Like To Be Able To Play A Character And Act Out A Lot Of Things Which I Can't Or Don't Do In My Normal Everyday Life.

My Father, George, Has Also Affected The Choices In My Life Regarding Films. I Like Films That Take Chances Or Say Something Different Or Experiment. Growing Up With Him, I Was Surrounded By Different Artists - Not Just Actors Or Film-makers But Cartoonists, Poets, Writers.

It Does Feel Like The Middle Ground Has Fallen Out. I'm Only Saying That From Personal Experience, Saying, "i'd Like To Make That Movie" And Hearing, "oh, They're Not Making Those Types Of Movies Anymore."

I Like Movies! No, I Like Theater Too. And Paintings Are Great, And All Of That! But To Me, The Great Sort Of Artistic Medium I Think, Of Our Time, Is Film. I Really Feel That. I Mean To Me, There's Nothing Else Out There, Where I Can Sort Of Suspend Disbelief For Two Hours.

What I Do Is Whatever It Takes, It Takes. Sometimes You See A Scene Right Away And A Take Looks Great So You Might Print That And You Might Print A Couple More And Take Elements Of All Three. It Just Depends. You're Looking For The Highlights. You're Looking For The Best Elements Of The Scene, But Preferably You'd Like To Have One Good Take That Would Go All The Way Through.
