I don't think any actor feels comfortable watching themselves in movies. You must be very narcissistic. The problem with your own opinion of yourself is that contrary to the normal spectators, when you watch a film you are in, you only watch yourself.

And the actors tend not to want to watch themselves very often. I'm one of those guys.

Once the film is done, then I like to watch myself. I know some actors say that they get very self-conscious watching themselves on screen especially if they have to cry in the scenes, they don't like the way their face contorts, but I have no such issues.

Actors are observers. They're trying to have an understanding of human sensibility. And how do you have that accurate observation if you regard yourself as someone of great importance? When you're the one constantly being observed, because they view you as a celebrity? It's all wrong.

I find actors a little bit too self-conscious.

With some actors, you can tell when they're acting all by themselves, no matter who else is in the screen.

Some actors play themselves, don't they?

I'm very self-conscious as an actor, with performances and things, and I don't like watching my own stuff.

As most actors/actresses, I don't like to watch my own movies, either, and I never look at the dailys while filming.
