I know what my limitations are as an actor, but my strength is putting myself into a well-written part. When I get in trouble is when I have to fix it, or when I have to carry it on personality.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Every actor has a strength, and sometimes you just respond to things that you see yourself better at. I'm aware of what I can and can't do.
My strength as an actor is in the theater - I know that about myself. Some actors get onstage and vanish, but I'm much better there than I am on screen.
My weakness as an actor is that I think too much.
As an actor, you need to be versatile. You need to challenge yourself.
You work really hard to make it, and maybe you get some acclaim, but then you realize there are certain limitations as an actor.
If you have life's experiences with you, nothing can stop you from being a competent actor.
I am pretty hard on myself. But I think that's how it has to be if you want to keep growing as an actor.
People say that one of the most important things about being an actor is to have thick skin, but I don't think that's it. Because you can't just walk around being tough, you have to be able to be vulnerable to do this. So really, it's about not being defensive.
The problem with being an actor is that you have to be reactive to what other people want.
In acting, you can always grow and get better - even if you think you're at your limit.
