I just don't think that I could be the kind of actor I want to be and not be honest with myself. Honesty is very important to me as an actor and as a person. I didn't even think about it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I would like to think that I'm always honest with myself and others. I guess that's what makes me a half-decent actor.
I don't really consider myself to be an actor of any particular style. My aim with every role I undertake is to be truthful and honest in that particular portrayal. I don't have a particular methodology from any one school of thought or training.
You know, my point in being an actor is to get people to believe that this is not about me, but something else.
I've had some ambivalent feelings about being an actor. I don't know that I've ever been totally and completely comfortable with it.
I believe in what movies say, and I'm not an actor because I want things to be about me. I have no interest - if there was any way for my face to not be in a movie and still be an actor, I would do it.
You go through stages in your career that you feel very good about yourself. Then you feel awful, like, 'Why didn't I choose something else?' But overall I'm pretty satisfied that I made the right choice when I decided to be an actor.
Any actor who is being honest will admit there's always a small or large part of the real you in every character. It's impossible not to have that.
I don't really view myself as an actor.
The thing about being an actor is that you turn into other people. You have to hide yourself a bit in order to let that other person come out.
If you try to talk about yourself honestly when you're an actor, you come off as stuck on yourself.
