I don't think about that. I wasn't a kid growing up saying one day I'll get an Oscar and make a speech. That wasn't on my mind. So what I do is the best work I can do.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I wasn't a kid growing up thinking, 'One day I'll get an Oscar and make a speech.' That wasn't on my mind.
I don't have any ambition to make lots of money or win an Oscar or anything like that. It's not about that for me.
As I've been acting since I was young it's taught me to give a good speech, and, though I say so myself, I did it pretty well.
I've trained myself not to put too much emphasis on awards, only because I never got into acting to win an award.
Winning an Oscar is an honor, but, between you and me, it does not makes things easier.
I never, in my wildest dreams, could I have thought that the first role I get out of school would lead to an Oscar nomination.
I think when you're young and have that first burst of energy and make five or six pictures in a row that tell the stories of all the things in life you want to say... well, maybe those are the films that should have won me the Oscar.
Trust me, I have never written a speech in my life, and if I have my way, I never will.
I don't care who you are. When you sit down to write the first page of your screenplay, in your head, you're also writing your Oscar acceptance speech.
This sounds crazy, but my goal is to be nominated for an Oscar. I was the kid who was practicing my acceptance speech when I was ten.
