When I'm a director, I look at myself the actor as a completely different person. It's somebody else up there, an actor playing a role. I keep myself out of it.

I'm really a director's actor. I rely heavily on a director.

As an actor, I love working with directors. As much as I love working with other actors.

I think of myself as an actor.

As a director, you see something in someone; you know it's there, you just got to go get it. You do that with any actor. That's your job.

But I always see myself as the filmmaker. I wonder if everybody else sees me more as an actor.
