As an actor who has spent twenty years trying to crack America, the day I reached the 'Bloodline' set and found my name on a chair next to Sissy Spacek's was the happiest of my working life.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've been a very lucky actor.
I actually got hurt in a steel factory in 1985 and so that changed my life. I went to a junior college and that's where I discovered acting.
My whole life, I always wanted to be an actor.
It's such a fortunate life, if you can work as an actor.
I'd done a big movie that I wasn't happy with, and I was moving out of London when I got approached about Barton Fink, because my agent said the brothers were in London. We hit it off immediately, and suddenly I found myself on the way to America!
My acting career helped pull me through the rough times.
Finally I had a place where I could express my pain and I felt safe because I didn't have to put my name on it. I think acting kept me alive back then.
I never saw an actor and thought, 'Wow, I want to be like that.' It's just I wanted it to be part of my life.
I feel like I have just been really, really lucky to meet some of the most successful and great actors alive today.
If I would characterize my life, I would say that I was a very lucky actor who came into very lucky times, and got to Hollywood, and was put under contract by Warners in the very last days of the studio contract era, and was privileged to go through that time which is gone now.
