fantastic motivates quite rugged work
It was very hot, very rugged and quite inaccessible. But I had a fantastic time. The work is the thing that motivates me.
Sometimes it is easier to play someone who is far away from you.
alien attractive bad beginning jobs life time
Right from the beginning of time there were these very very attractive bad guys. It's a life that most of us have never led, so that's what makes it so attractive. The jobs that they have, the world that they occupy, is very alien to us.

I got involved in script development from the beginning. It was nice to see how a film gets made right from the beginning. It was quite hands-on for me.

You grow up a lot in terms of your understanding of the industry and how to deal with the corporate things.

When you do bigger films, the financiers take more risks.
acting labels method-acting
Method acting is a label I don't really understand, because there's a method to everybody's acting.
feelings looks actors
Being a salesman and an actor were not that dissimilar: It is a good lesson in covering up your feelings. No one wants to buy from someone who looks depressed.
