I want to make a clear distinction between people who take acting seriously and people who call themselves actors because they've been on reality TV or something.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Acting is a very limited form of expression and those who take it seriously are very limited people. I take it seriously.
So, one way or another, I found myself in a few movies. I take it seriously when I'm on the set, but I don't take myself seriously as an actor.
I know that some actors take acting terribly seriously. I take it seriously in that if someone pays me to do it I know I have to deliver.
So many people are called but few serve as actors, you know what I mean?
The term 'serious actor' is kind of an oxymoron, isn't it? Like 'Republican party' or 'airplane food.'
People become actors because they want to hide, and it's not easy to talk about myself. I accept that a certain responsibility goes with being an actor in the public eye, but I haven't found a comfortable way to deal with it.
I'm from a country where acting is taken very seriously; it's a very serious profession.
I have never taken myself that seriously as an actor.
I don't call myself an actor, I call myself an entertainer, because I don't just do one thing.
I don't take myself too seriously. I think that's something so many actors and people in general tend to do.
