Watching a person lose their dignity used to be uncomfortable, and now it's an expected part of the program that we're becoming comfortable with.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm very comfortable with uncomfortable situations, and I think that can seem odd to people, that I like the thrill of discomfort.
I remember thinking that I'd never show my arms on TV, but over time you loosen up.
I'm a world-class people watcher. I like to watch people's body movements, their expressions. It says so much about them.
You want the audience to be uncomfortable.
I think actors get too comfortable. I like being uncomfortable as an actor because it keeps you alive. I don't know, I think it's important.
I think it's an interesting thing to watch when a person is trying to keep it together and then ultimately when they do lose it a little bit.
I've always sort of admired and respected one's ability to be comfortable with other people's discomfort or, you know, their being comfortable making other people uncomfortable.
I just like watching people who really are not self-conscious, who aren't aware, because I fear that one could become too self-conscious, too artful, as an actor. Sometimes if you look at somebody, you can extrapolate from their exterior what might be happening in their interior. I'm nosy.
If there's anything unsettling to the stomach, it's watching actors on television talk about their personal lives.
There's a oneness to showing yourself to an audience. They feel that. It's healthy. That's what acting is all about.
