I've seen my performances. I don't like them.

It hurts me to consider anybody questioning my performances.

I sit down with my coach to watch past performances. But I can be very critical. I don't watch myself very often - it makes me cringe!

It is hard to watch myself. I'm hypercritical, and it's difficult to watch a performance when I may end up being at odds with it - wishing I'd done something differently or that they had edited it a certain way.

As a member of the audience I don't like it that I can't see what's going on in the eyes and in the face and in the most subtle responses of a performer when I'm more than a few rows back. I find it very frustrating.

I don't want to talk about the specifics of other people's performances compared with my own. I'd never do that.

It doesn't matter to me if I'm in love with my performance, so I watch all of my performances to understand and learn from them and figure out what's working and what's not. And I see the movies that I'm in in the theater a lot.

As an actor, I'm always critical watching others; it's just the nature of the beast. For me, any performance that doesn't cause my ego to say, 'I can do that' really signifies that it's spectacular.

I've always thought if you watch the performance and you don't know about the person, then you only see the performance.
