We have too many actors for the jobs available.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Hollywood is where they shoot too many pictures and not enough actors.
Acting isn't a sure thing. We're not set to have jobs for the rest of lives, and fame is really fickle.
People have this belief that actors are able to go out there and say, 'Oh I choose this job,' but most of the time we're just taking the job we can get. We don't just get offered thousands of jobs; we might earn one job a year and that's the one we'll take because we've got to pay the rent.
Actors have given up their clout. Now decision making is in the hands of lighting men, designers, bankers, special-effects people. We need to cut that out and just go with the most able trained actors in the business.
Actors have to be there and do the work, and that's enough.
As an actor, sometimes you've gotta take the jobs that you may not want to do. It's so hard to work as an actor.
Actors are people who are doing a job they want to do, which isn't the case for many of the people who watch what we do.
Too many actors have run for office. There's one difference between me and them: I know I'm not qualified.
I think there are a lot of other actors that are just talented, it's just about this opportunity - it's just about when are we going to be put in those positions where we can shine.
It's such a small industry here you inevitably end up working with the same people over and over again. There are only so many actors to go around, which is good for us.
