The long, forensic interview really matters.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think the long interview has an important life.
I think an interview, properly considered, should be an investigation. You shouldn't know what the interview will yield. Otherwise, why do it at all?
You've gotta understand - when you interview someone, it's not an interrogation. It's not the Nuremberg Trials.
You never really meet a human being until you live with them or know them for awhile, so this is my clown and they understand that and so these interviews don't bother them.
So interviews are a valuable tool, but under certain circumstances they'd be more valuable than others.
Ah, I don't do interviews, really.
I believe there's too little patience and context to many of the investigations I read or see on television.
Maybe the real subject of every interview is how you really can't learn much of anything about anyone from an interview.
An investigation may take six months. A quick interview, profile, a day.
When you act, you've got to be like a poet or a musician. It's not about evidence before court. It's not a forensic subject. It's poetry; it's a completely different place.
