If you find yourself in a movie that you have questions about, it's not a compromise to your integrity.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When you're actually making the film, you're constantly battling to maintain its integrity.
If there's anything that I've always said about myself is that to me, it's much more important for me to get to work with filmmakers that I've grown up loving and admiring.
Films don't decide my whole life. They are just a part of who I am. What I do in my personal life should be of no concern to the filmmakers or the fans.
The movie industry is very competitive, and if you're like me and you suffer from your own insecurities about whether or not you're any good, that can be troubling.
Every time you do a movie, it's important for your career, your reputation.
So it's kind of nervous to be in this situation, but at the same time you look at all those actors and the work that they've done, I've been in bigger films than all of them and still kept my integrity and still kept my respect.
I'm certainly not who people think I am. I always do whatever I want to do, and my films are personal to me.
I never think that a film should answer questions for you. I think it should make you ask a lot of questions.
Doing interviews about my films really bothers me sometimes, because I have to speak directly and clearly about things I've intended to keep ambiguous, and in a way, I feel like I'm betraying my film.
You are defined by who you are, by your choices in life, in all regards, not just in doing movies.
