And then, as the years went on, I just kept moving along, busting into doors and getting roles, until I started to actually believe that what these other people were saying was true.
From Vincent D'Onofrio
I think that being a producer is business and being an actor is art.
My partner Dan Ireland wants me to direct, and I read a lot of scripts - some good enough that I could see myself. But then it's like, so what? Who cares? Let someone else direct it.
People who are extremely inside their head, like he was, are caught in a neurosis that goes round and round. Then something will hook them and take them to their end and they can't control it.
The Whole Wide World is the first movie I've ever produced.
When I was younger I used to pick things just to face the fear.
So I moved to Europe and only came back when directors like Robert Altman would call me after they'd seen my work in Full Metal Jacket.
But the one thing that I did do was establish myself as a good actor.
So a failed movie is not going to ruin my career.
Unless you look like Brad Pitt, it's really hard to have full control of your character.
