I want to prove a point. That point is, actors are artists, not narcissists necessarily.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When you're an actor, you can be hindered by your own narcissism.
There's a thin line between narcissism, even if it's a healthy narcissism, and entertainment.
I need theatre for my equilibrium, because in theatre the actors don't care so much about image, about celebrity - you are more independent. There is not the narcissism, maybe, that you find in cinema.
People accuse artists of being narcissists - of course we are! If we don't like ourselves, who's going to like us?
I don't like artists who are actors. I like artists, but I don't believe in that.
Acting is usually regarded as a wholly narcissistic pursuit but there really is a hunger in me to unravel the human condition.
I think narcissists are endlessly watchable. The way they view the world and the way they interact within the world.
I just don't understand why more actors aren't artists.
This may sound a little harsh, but I don't care about my career. Really, I don't like actors who are always planning what they're going to do next or always worrying about doing something that will go against the image they've created. To me, that's almost like an attack of narcissism.
Actors are all narcissists.
