I don't necessarily see myself as an experienced filmmaker just because I've been in a few movies.

I really think of myself just as a filmmaker.

When I'm a director, I look at myself the actor as a completely different person. It's somebody else up there, an actor playing a role. I keep myself out of it.

I don't really view myself as an actor.

I think I'm drawn to films more as a director with a directorial mind even as an actor. I make movies to make the films, not to act.

I'm an actor more than anything else.

I really feel that I'm a much better director than I was an actor.

You have to get it in your brain that you don't belong to yourself as an actor, but that you belong to the director who creates the character.

I definitely don't see myself as an actor. I don't even have it on my passport. I've got 'writer and electrician' on my passport. I don't want anyone to think I'm an actor.
