I'm a Method actor. I spent years training for the drinking and carousing I had to do in this film.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As an actor, I have tried to do new things, and that's why I have done few films.
There are actors who spend 20 years working and still don't achieve what I've achieved so quickly. So I think my only course of action is to work as hard as I can, not just for the sake of the film, but also to prove to these people that I do have talent.
I was a film student. I became an actor, but I thought I'd be pursuing filmmaking originally.
Well, all I can say is thank goodness I had 15 years of theater before ever I did film roles. You build technique that you can rely on.
I got into acting to get my foot in the door for film-making.
I've had plenty of lessons about film acting and theatre acting.
One of the things I've learned over the years is that you only do what you can do as an actor. You do the best job you can, but you have no control over so many elements that are going to determine the outcome of that film. I never pay attention to what happens after.
I have been a director who has starred, participated on both sides of the filmmaking process.
I don't use any techniques; I'm not trained to be an actor. I just enjoy working in films.
You know, I've never been much of a method actor. I feel like, with every project I go in extremely prepared and I like to have a good time.
