I Have A Bee In My Bonnet

My Ambition Is To Keep The Audience Guessing... That Is My Path To A Long Career.

I Admire Many Actors, Though I Don't Think There's Anyone Whose Career I Would Want To Mirror Sort Of By The Beats. What I'm Really Looking To Do Is Constantly Defy Expectations. I'm Very Curious To See If You Can Actually Have A Character Actor And A Movie Star's Career Combined.

I Do Think How Two People Dance With Each Other Is Indicative Of How They Feel About Each Other. It Can Tell A Lot More Than A Verbal Scene.

I Truly Believe That One Of The Things That Has Been Lacking In America Is A Spirit Of Repentance About The Injustices Of Slavery And The Injustices Of Segregation And Racism Generally. I Truly Believe That We Cannot Come To A Place Of Reconciliation Until There Is Individual Repentance And Corporate Repentance.

When You Reflect Upon The Significance Of Dr. King To This Nation, It's Criminal That He Hasn't Had A Feature Film That Was Centered Around Him Until Now. That, In And Of Itself, Was Emotional. But When You're Doing Scenes On The Edmund Pettus Bridge, With People Still Living In Selma And Now In Their 60s And 70s Who Had Actually Marched, Who Were There That Original Bloody Sunday, That's Humbling... That's Deeply Moving. You're No Longer Acting At That Stage, You're Just Reacting, Because It Takes The Filmmaking Process To Another Dimension.
