I'm Not Really Into Musicals.

There Are Movies Where Actors Aren't Characters But Movie Stars, Being Cool Beyond Belief Throughout The Whole Movie. That Is What It Is. And We Reveal Ourselves When We Act, Very Often Without Noticing. But If I Can Manage To Do A Character Without Showing Anything Of Myself, Then That's The Ultimate Goal For Me. No Leakage.

I Chose To Tell A Personal Story. When You Tell A Movie Like This That's As Emotionally Charged As This Is, It's A Risk. As One Of My Great Cinematic Heroes, Francis Coppola, Would Say, "if You Aren't Taking The Highest, Greatest Risk, Then Why Are You A Filmmaker?"

There Are Occasions When I've Pretended To Be In A Firefight, And Then There Are People Who Have Really Been In A Firefight. Clearly It's Absolutely Ridiculous, And Even Disrespectful, To Suggest That I Understand What That Is.

It's Tough To Make A Good Movie. I Think The Bigger The Movies Are, The Worse They Are. A Lot Of Big Movies Make A Lot Of Money And You Kind Of Forget About What They Are And They Don't Really Make You Think.

I Have A Very Sissy Job, Where I Go To Work And Get My Hair Done, And People Do My Makeup, And I Go And Say Lines And People Spoil Me Rotten. And Everyone Has That Kind Of Curiosity Of How Far Can You Go, How Far Can You Take It. I Think It's Always Good Testing Yourself.
