I have so much empathy for these young actors that are 19 and all of a sudden they're beautiful and famous and rich. I'm like, 'Oh my God, I'd be dead.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I feel so sorry for younger actors who aren't able to have the opportunities that I had, starting out in repertory theatre. It's really tough on young actors now.
My father comes from a generation of film that actors my age don't even know about, which is really sad.
Because you know, down deep in my heart, when all is said and done, I still live under the illusion that basically people think of me as an up-and-coming young actor.
The actors I admire are character actors.
I've worked with the greatest actors, and they're all gone. This is what's so desperate to me.
You feel an affinity with younger actors, because, you know, it's a very insecure job. And it can be a long time before you feel like, you know, things might be all right.
I mean, you know, actors lives - you're forgotten. Look at Barrymore, and look at all the great actors. They're forgotten after awhile.
I don't want to be one of those young actors who is around for a couple of years and melts off the scene.
I don't envy young actors.
Young actors are pretty fantastic. I can't even imagine doing stuff like that when I was a kid.
