The extreme side of my personality, which I chose to sort of display, was snowballing and getting a life of its own. It was like looking in a mirror and not recognising myself.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My personality can be extreme in all ways, even in positive ways; I've learned that.
I thought I wasn't attractive or talented anymore. I cried easily and was depressed and removed. I became emotionally insecure about what the second half of my life would bring. I was angry, scared, frightened and lonely.
I've portrayed so many diverse individuals on the screen that my own personality never emerged.
The core of my personality consists of many selves.
I prided myself on being unflappable even in the most chaotic of circumstances.
My grandmother had the most dramatic effect on my life because she set me in one direction, and I had to go back the other direction for my sanity, and for my ability to be a social human being.
Definitely for me, my personality, having children was a definite sea change. I found it very, very hard to balance show business and being a dad. The narcissism of show business and the complete, total focus of it was very difficult.
Growing up, I just wanted to be like everyone else. I didn't value or understand the beauty in being different at the time in my life.
My personality was always such that I always look straight forward, never behind or to the side.
I decided a long time ago to be myself and not worry too much about cultivating some kind of personality that didn't feel natural or true to who I am.
