characters pictures weirdos
If, at the end of the day, I can look back and see pictures of all the characters I've played, and there's a smorgasbord of weirdos and interesting, odd, different characters, I'd be so happy.
against characters definitely stories
There's definitely a fascination with crime stories and stories of characters acting out against authority.
characters constantly lighter lightness
As an actor, I'm constantly striving to find the darkness in the lighter characters and the lightness in the darker characters.
characters great life lock shock ways
I think the great thing about characters is the ways that they can be surprising. I mean, sometimes you think you've got a lock on a personality, even just in life, and then they'll shock you by their behavior.
character play indulge-in
Sometimes, the smaller roles in movies can be the most interesting. If you only take the stance that you'll only play central characters in movies, you'll find yourself not being able to indulge in that morally grey terrain that makes support characters so rich and interesting.
character interesting quality
The recipe for any character is always very interesting, as far as what doses of certain qualities you want.
character larger-than-life boyhood
I'm hardly digging trenches for a living. I'm getting to tap into my boyhood fantasies of being a larger-than-life character.
people signed
I've signed four autographs for Sam Worthington in L.A., and I haven't told any of the people that I'm not him.
bad high review seen
I've never seen a film get away completely unscathed like I have 'Animal Kingdom.' There's not a single bad review that I've read of it yet; all through Sundance, all it got was high praise.
outdoors spent time
I spent a lot of time outdoors as a kid.
difference films low people stage time vastly
People talk about the difference between working on stage and working on film. I think you could say that there are as many differences between working on low budget films and working on big budget films. You really are doing the same thing, but at the same time you're doing something vastly different as well.
darth fact hard luke vader wrap
Even to this day, when I think about the fact that I'm in this 'Star Wars' world, that I'm a half-brother to Darth Vader and an uncle to Luke Skywalker, it's too hard to wrap my head around.
films life
Blue Tongue Films is a very important part of my life.
hope leads led next opposite suspect turn wonder
Sometimes I just wonder if I'm being led by variety. If one film leads me down one path, sometimes I just want to turn around and head the opposite way for the next project. I hope that's not the case, but sometimes I suspect that.
