Because I would just tell everyone it was going to be great and just put that belief in them.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think people wanted to see some specificity in faith on TV.
Right now, it's really about my fans knowing that whatever I believed spiritually at the time is what I believed. I just wouldn't deliberately lie to them just to save my image.
Isn't it time you came out and told the world what you believe?
Because I could take this as an opportunity to create something that I pretty much guarantee nobody else was going to create in film.
If I had a religious belief, I would want it to be as strong as my belief in the theater.
I prefer more to kind of show people different things than tell them 'oh, here's what you should believe' and, over time, you can build up a rapport with your audience.
Encouraging people to believe in it was the most important thing of all. It's one of the reasons I was always uncomfortable whenever film crews came on the set to shoot things. I didn't want our make-believe to be exposed.
If I told people that I knew what I was doing, nobody would believe me, so why even try and fake it?
I'd never just want to do what everybody else did. I'd be contributing to the sameness of everything.
Would you believe in what you believe in if you were the only one who believed it?
