It's True What They Say About Failure.

I Think One Of The Things You Have To Be Aware Of As An Actor Is That If You Come On The Set And See The Director Standing There Mouthing All The Words While A Scene Is Going On, That's Usually A Very Bad Sign Because It Means The Director Has Already Shot The Scene In His Head. He Knows Exactly The Rhythm And The Nuances That He Wants Delivered In The Line And You're Not Going To Dissuade Him.

Well First Of All, It's Hard To Shoot A Movie And Break For A Long Time And Then Come Back And Do, In A Sense, One Of The Biggest Scenes That Each Character Had.

I Wanted To Be A Jazz Pianist, But I Wasn't Good Enough. I Got Into City College Because I Didn't Have The Grades To Get Into University. I Took Acting Because It Was A Way To Get Three Credits. I Just Needed Three Credits And My Friend Told Me To Take Acting Because It Was Like Gym - Nobody Fails You. I Took It And That's Literally How I Got Involved In Acting.

I Stopped Working A Few Years Ago Because I Just Lost A Spark That I'd Had Before. I Thought I'd Just Try Writing, And Maybe Start Directing, But I Did It Very Quietly.

Someone Once Said To Me, 'some Of Us Choose To Live With A Lifeboat Just A Little Bit Out Of Our Reach.' I'd Like To Reach A Point Where I No Longer Bullshit Myself. I Think That's The Natural Human Condition - To Lie To Yourself. Because The Truth Is Painful.
