Acting, at least for me, is very unreal, and when I'm doing it, I actually feel embarrassed.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm foremost an actor. I feel embarrassed being compared to the guys who really work at it. I fake it, I make believe I know all about it, which is what you're supposed to do as an actor.
With acting, I always feel conscious of what I'm doing.
Acting is a humiliating job, from start to finish.
The thing I adore about acting is that it's not me: you get to experience all these emotions, but essentially it's not you.
The idea of acting is something that absolutely repulses me. I just can't do it. I'm terrible at it. I get roped into films every now and then, and it's always a disaster.
Acting is a work in progress for me. I just try to keep my mouth shut and my eyes and ears open, especially with the people I've worked with.
I don't really like 'acting' - I like things to feel as natural as possible.
Acting is something I've done since I was six years old, performing for my mum and my family in the living room, and I do it because my heart's in it.
Acting has always been very comfortable for me, so it allows me to pay attention to other parts of the process literally while I'm acting.
Acting is such a personal thing, which is weird because at the same time it's not. It's for the consumption of other people. But in terms of creative outlets and expressing yourself, it's just the most extreme version of that that I've ever found. It's like running, it's exertion.
