Usually in stories there are big problems in the beginning or couples are pulling away, there's a lot of bitterness.
From Amy Ryan
When I was growing up I actually was into Bon Jovi!
Being an actor, we're so dependent on the writers.
I can really laugh at myself and make a fool out of myself.
I will admit, it's so intoxicating working with Steve Carrell. Creatively and professionally.
I come from a working-class background in Queens, New York.
First of all, the actor needs to get out of the character's way. You follow the character without judgment or prejudice or preconceived ideas.
I find that all great directors, and I would include Ben Affleck and Clint Eastwood in that, they have great confidence. And with great confidence comes great freedom for the actor.
One of the great perks of being an actor is you're only as smart as the job you're in, you know, and you're only as informed as the job you're in, and you do become an expert, and you read all the books, but then there's a part of, like, you move on.
It's funny to see the finished product of a movie, stuff that's so beautiful, and to remember the particulars.
