important actors littles
Writers, actors, anybody working on an ensemble-type thing, there are going to be some creaks in the beginning. It seems like there's tremendous potential in just letting things sort of breathe a little bit. It's tremendously important.
sobriety actors better-person
There is no question that sobriety has made me a better actor, made me a better person.
giving actors scripts
But I've always been hard to cast, I've never been an ingenue, I've never been the romantic lead. I'm an actor; give me the script and I do what I do and hope it's good.
I've said many times I would do this for a long time.
cast spent time
I spent a long time doing independent films, and I?d like to think I?m not getting cast because of the show, but because I?m right for the role.
The Sopranos. I would never want to know.
character downs finding follow imagine thrill ups
You get to follow the same character through a lot of the same ups and downs that you go through in your own life. I can't imagine any place else where you get to do that and what a thrill it is. It's not about finding the character any more. It's about actually being in it and going where ever she goes.

I was very happy living a normal existence in New York, having my circle of friends. I lived very anonymously for 12 years prior to The Sopranos.

I was here when it happened. I need more time, but that's just me. I'm personally not ready for it.
deal goes kids people relate soprano sort stuff tony
I think people can relate to a lot of these characters. They say, 'Oh, I am sort of like that, and my kids go through stuff like that, and I had to deal with that.' And then Tony Soprano goes and kills somebody.
believed eight fact squeeze time
I have believed him each time before, and I really believe him this time. I think he's done, by the fact that they were only able to squeeze eight more out of him.
bless god nobody signed watch
Nobody signed anything to watch this as long as it's on the air. If they find something else, God bless them.
ask
She's lovely, great, open, accessible, excited. Everything you could ask for.
open
Well, yeah, but I probably wasn't as open about my desperation.
