I suspect there isn't an actor alive who was able to truthfully answer his family's questions after his first day's activity in his future profession.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Being an actor sometimes requires that you ask yourself questions you'd rather not know the answers to.
Whenever any actor comes into a producer session, they have so many questions, and we still can't really tell them that much until they get the job.
I mean, the question actors most often get asked is how they can bear saying the same things over and over again, night after night, but God knows the answer to that is, don't we all anyway; might as well get paid for it.
Other actors don't get asked about their brothers or sisters, so why do I have to always answer questions about having a twin brother? I suppose it's interesting for everybody other than me.
People assume actors are born liars, but I'd argue the actor's job is to tell the truth. And I've realised I'm not a good liar.
I think any actor should be aware of where they're starting to stretch into what's not truthful.
Actors are seen as celebrities, but they're just real people with families.
God, I hate interviews with actors pouncing on. Who wants to know about their lives? I don't want to know about Al Pacino's life.
I wasn't aware of my dad being an actor when I was young. I remember there was an Australian children's entertainer on television called Ralph Harris and when I'd say my father was an actor, kids would say, you know, 'oh, is he Ralph Harris?' And I had to say no and then they would lose interest.
All the time, as an actor, you want to be asking what's next and where things are going. If you're not asking those questions, you're not growing.
