I've been on jobs where there's that one actor who is just a miserable, miserable no-good, dirty bastard, and it just turns the whole process sour.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I used to watch actors and say, 'You poor suckers, that job looks miserable.'
In all of us, there is a struggle between the good and the bad. It makes it more palpable and real to play such people as an actor.
Actors are the best and the worst of people. They're like kids. When they're good, they're very very good. When they're bad they're very very naughty.
I expect I should be more calloused by now, but I am so sensitive about not ever living up to anybody's worst idea about an actor who is well-known.
Well, I've always been a character actor, you know, and you always get your share of character actors who are bad guys.
Maybe that's my lot in life as an actor, to be the guy who gets crapped on everywhere he goes. Oh God.
Actors don't get to be well-known if they're horrible.
I have the absolute utmost respect for soap opera actors now. They work harder than any actor I know in any other medium. And they don't get very much approbation for it.
Let me tell you a little secret: There are no bad actors. There are none. You have to find the right role. I never give up on people. For God's sake, look at me.
One of the things I enjoyed the most is just working as an actor.
