care character films honest material
There's only so much you can do with the material you're given, ... A lot of films are very male-oriented, but this is a male-dominated industry. Let's not lie. I don't care what character I play as long as it's an honest exploration.
based character fought harassment sexual women
My character is fictional, but she is based on all the women who fought the sexual harassment case, and everything you see in the film actually happened.
character designed element elements far knew knowledge matter obviously outfits peter sexual stay strong tried true within
No matter how sexual this character is and how comfortable she is with her sexuality, we obviously knew that we couldn't go as far with the outfits as Peter had designed for her. We still tried to stay true to that element and the knowledge that she's very independent and very comfortable within her skin. She's not shy. She's a very strong person. When you play with those elements of sexuality, it makes it really fun.
again character concerned laughs makeup maybe physical sound staying tried worked wrong
we were concerned we were going to sound too broad, and maybe get laughs in the wrong way. We tried to fine-tune it a little, staying kind of neutral. Part of the transformation in any character is a new way of speaking. Also the physical look. Once again I worked with Toni G, who did my makeup for 'Monster.'
character thinking pay
I guess because I pay so much attention to the physical part of the character, I don't look upon it as like Charlize Theron up there. I don't think of them as like Charlize Theron films.
jobs character canvas
My job is to be a blank canvas & embody the characters that I'm playing.
character people looks
They really stay just characters to me. I look at them, and I don't see always the same person up there. And hopefully, people will see that too. Because it's very easy to bore people, and that's a killer. So hopefully that won't happen.
character careers
I've tried most of my career to transform myself towards characters.
mean character careers
I mean I tried to transform myself through characters throughout my career.
character easy
I'm very attracted to characters who don't necessarily make it easy to be loved.
character discipline needs
You have to discipline yourself and not carry the character with you. You need to switch it off and take time to re-energize.
character play
You can live vicariously through the characters you play.
constant implement night people searching sleep truth ugly
People said, 'Oh, you're doing another ugly movie,' ... I said, 'No, I'm doing another film about real people, and it's not about ugly vs. anything.' It's about searching for that constant truth, and I don't think I'll be able to sleep at night if I know I didn't search for that truth and implement it. I don't know how else to do it as an actor.
