But it's a strange thing when people judge you because you're not doing some big Hollywood film. Are you suggesting I should be in 'The Dukes of Hazzard?' I mean, hello?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If people want to see me in comedies, that's fine with me.
I don't champion the idea of being in a Hollywood movie. I never had fun in one of them.
The problem with being a film actress or a movie star is that people see you so huge that somehow you're visually massive or somehow you're in some removed space, which is a television or wherever. It somehow takes your humanity.
I don't really want to do the Hollywood thing. I think you ought to try to say something with your movies.
It's a very odd thing with Hollywood, where you do stand-up, you're good at it, then they go, 'How would you like to be a horrible actor?' Then you say, 'All right, that sounds good. I'll do that.'
I'm not Hollywood. I'm a Quarter Rat. I belong here.
One day, you're a nobody, and the next, you're in a movie that everybody is talking about. But Hollywood has a way of knocking you back down to Earth.
I never had any desire to be a film actor. I never thought I was the good-looking movie type, which I assumed they wanted.
Films don't decide my whole life. They are just a part of who I am. What I do in my personal life should be of no concern to the filmmakers or the fans.
And I'm OK being judged as an actor.
