Performing Is About Developing Empathy, Which Leads

I Aspire To Be An Instrument Of The Director. I'm Happiest Like That. The Stronger The Director, The More I'm Willing To Give Them. It's Not Just About Admiration For Their Films, It's How They Deal With You, And Whether They Get You Or The Way You Work. If They Don't, You Better Adjust Your Way Of Working To Suit Them. I Want To Work With People Who Are Good At What They Do, And People Who Are Passionate. As You Get Older, You Suffer Fools Less Easily. That's Why There's All Those Cranky Character Actors. I'm An Exception. I'm A Sweetheart.

Any Actor Who Tells You That He Makes Choices, Absolutely, Is Wrong. You Find Work And Work Finds You.

Basically, When I Hear The Words 'family Drama' I Run In The Opposite Direction.

I Think, As I've Gotten Older, I've Been Able To Be More Reckless With My Choices, Because Practically Speaking, You Get Less Careful. Your Choices Become More Instinctive, And You Feel Like If You Make A Mistake, It Won't Destroy You.

I Have Some Sort Of Affinity For Compulsive Behavior. The Most Interesting Stories Come Up From The People On The Outside. They Don't Waste Energy Marching To The Same Drummer Most Of Us Do. It Gives Us An Opportunity To Look At Things In A Different Way, Which Is The Purest Thing Cinema Can Do.
