Nothing makes an actor feel freer and more inventive and more creative than being trusted.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When you work as an actor, you've got to feel safe even in what appears to be the simplest things.
As an actor, you can think your way out of a lot of good things sometimes. I trust my instincts as an actor, and I trust the instincts of the creators, so it's a good combination.
As an actor you appreciate the security of a job. But I don't ever want to get too comfortable.
When you're feeling very comfortable with an actor, you are doing nothing.
Sometimes I think being an actor is like being a dog for a director; it's like they throw a stick, and you want to fetch it and bring it back to them. You want a pat on the head for it.
Actors are an insecure breed. It's hard to have your career depend upon other people's opinions of what you do.
I just let the work speak for itself. An actor is not afraid to take risks; to put on different hats; to be a good guy, a bad guy, a victim, an abuser. There are all kinds of people in the world, and playing them is what acting is all about.
It's really important for actors to feel that they're more than something for hire.
You can't trust actors.
The job of an actor is the same in all of them, really. I mean, you're just creating a character that you hope people will believe, so it doesn't make that much of a difference really.
