Acting is about giving something away, handing yourself over to whatever role you are asked to play. I'm not hiding or escaping or seeking anonymity. I reserve the right not to have a rubber stamp on my forehead saying this is who I am. Because who I am gets in the way of people looking innocently at the parts I play. |
Actors are beings who have tasted life's nectar in that crystal moment when they poured out their creative spirit and touched another's heart. |
Actors are willing to give their entire lives to a moment--to that line, that laugh, that gesture, or that interpretation that will stir the audience's soul. |
Actors become actors because they loved entertaining their family by putting on the lampshade and dancing around as a kid, ... That's not my personality. For me, the fun part of making movies is seeing it as a director sees it. I like the architecture of movies. I like knowing what's coming and working to set that up. |
As an actor one does read Shakespeare and does try to learn the classics. |
I don't know if anyone will ever sit beside me on a plane again. |

I'd probably have been wealthier if I had stayed with law, but pretty miserable doing it. |
