I Was A Shy Kid, A Late

As An Actor It's Easy To Be So Self-critical, Saying To Yourself: "am I Good Enough? Am I Good Looking Enough? Am I Smart Enough?" Yet Here I Am, So I'm Lucky.

Everything Is Just Make Believe. They're Just Different Versions Of Make Believe. I Love The Period Of This Movie [the Finest Hours]. I Love The '40s. I Love The '50s. I Love The Style Of The Clothes. I Love How The Women Looked. I Love The Dances. I Love The Music. I Love The Amber Of The Lights And The Cars. I'm In Love With All Of It.

I Am Critical Of Myself Like Everyone Else. You Go To A Movie Theater And You Are Forty Feet High. I Had Bad Skin As A Teenager And I Am A Shy Person, But I Think I Am In The Perfect Business To Fight My Insecurities. You Have To Learn To Love Yourself And Say 'i Am Pretty Cool' Instead Of Being So Critical. You Can Easily Fall Into The Trap Of Doing That.

When I Got The Job I Thought About Her A Lot. Not Only Was I Getting A Great Job In A Really Good Movie, But It Was With Lindsay Lohan. She's So Famous And I Don't Have Any Of That, I Have Never Experienced That Kind Of Intense Scrutiny That She's Under, So Of Course I Wondered What It Would Be Like Acting Opposite Her. I Can Tell You That It's Like Being With The Beatles. You Cannot Fathom The Kind Of Attention She Gets. It's Mind Boogling.

It's Not Always The Case That Things Will Fall Into Your Lap Or That Life Will Be Great, But It's All About Perspective And Having A Positive Outlook. If Something Goes Wrong You Say: "that Happened For A Reason, What Can I Learn From That And How Can I Grow?"
