In LA, too many people want to go the quickest route from A to B. Method acting offers them that.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The business that people do in LA on the social level is amazing. You go to a restaurant, bump into this guy or that guy. The next day you get a call, and they want you in their movie.
There's too many actors in LA. I mean, I'll go out there from time to time, but I always find it pretty soul-destroying. I don't drive, and the people kind of rub me the wrong way. It's just not home. You know? It's not New York. It's not... my town.
Los Angeles is peopled by waiters and carpenters and drivers who are there to be actors.
Some people go to L.A. just to see recognizable people. There are tour buses. But in New York, everyone seems a little less into that.
Nowadays, kids... young actors... they go straight to L.A. before they've even done anything.
Method acting is a label I don't really understand, because there's a method to everybody's acting.
I think people are always trying to demystify whatever acting is, so they want to know what your method is.
I don't know what that Method is. Acting is life, to me, and should be.
Acting is what happens on the way.
I walk out my front door in New York and I'm out on the street and there are people everywhere. L.A. is so much more spread out, so it's really easy in L.A. to have a little more isolation and to just not see as many people.
