I Think What A Lot Of People Don't Realize Is How Much Being The Leader Of This Movement Weighed Upon Him. After All, He [dr. Martin Luter King] Was Only 39 Years-old When He Was Assassinated, And Only 36 During The Selma Campaign. He Always Seemed Older Than He Actually Was, And I Believe Part Of That Had To Do With Just How Much Life He Had To Live In Order To Lead This Movement.

I Think What A Lot Of People Don't Realize Is How Much Being The Leader Of This Movement Weighed Upon Him. After All, He [dr.

He Always Seemed Older Than He Actually Was, And I Believe Part Of That Had To Do With Just How Much Life He Had To Live In Order To Lead This Movement.

I Gravitate Towards Anything That Feels Challenging To Me, That Feels Like It's Gonna Be Saying Something A Bit Different And New To The Audience, And Anything That Moves Me. I Do Movies That I Would Want To See, So I Don't Necessarily Gravitate Towards Any Genre In Particular. I Just Try And Do The Best Work I Can And Also Try To Keep The Audience Guessing.
