The period from 2001 to 2005 was really tough. My films were not working even though there was an acceptance of a model. I was depressed but did not cry. I cry when I am happy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I feel like I had to learn how to take care of myself and find out what made me happy aside from just making films.
I did my first film when I was in the final year of my graduation. At that time, I was still a kid, and I couldn't read the industry very well.
I was a slightly melancholy child and I think films were a way of escaping for me.
I got very depressed. Hollywood can be a terrible place when you're depressed. The pits. I decided I had to change my life and do different things.
I can't say I was unhappy as a child actor in films. I had a particularly wonderful time.
I cry in movies a lot, and over books.
I was doing television and films for a good five years, and then I booked 'Cry-Baby.'
Movies were a struggle for me - they didn't come easy.
The few times in my life where I had four or five movies in a row, it was a nightmare. I felt trapped. I felt like my life was planned for a year and a half or two years, and it was terrible. Most of the time, everything collapsed.
Everything was in stark and dreadful contrast with the trivial crises and counterfeit emotions of Hollywood, and I returned to England deeply moved and emotionally worn out.
