I think actors have a choice of drawing attention to themselves or living on the outskirts.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It is interesting to be here and to see that for certain actors they have to live in a way that you think of nobody living anymore except for in small towns. They have such elaborate double lives.
I'm particularly drawn to actors in their own little drama. I find it's that area I'm very alive to. And I don't encounter it that often. You have to be far from civilization, you have to be far from New York or London to find people who do that.
Actors go inside the heads of other people and are not afraid of the complicated places you can find yourself.
I think most actors like to do things that are right outside of their comfort zone.
As a filmmaker, you realize that places have character based on their history as much as a face does or an actor does.
Actors have to be there and do the work, and that's enough.
Most actors I know come from a screwed up background, so it makes sense that if you can walk on to a space and recreate your reality, then that's the place that will become very dear.
Actors are people who are doing a job they want to do, which isn't the case for many of the people who watch what we do.
People think actors have such glamorous lives, but the truth is actors go where nobody wants to go.
Till now I have never shot a scene without taking account of what stands behind the actors because the relationship between people and their surroundings is of prime importance.
