I got taken by the oldest con going.
I have long been a supporter of The Prince's Trust, and so when American Express asked me to launch 'Amex Be Inspired' and help young people build their confidence and fulfil their potential, I was delighted to get involved.
As long as we, in the United States, continue to insist that our politicians have to spend all of their time raising millions of dollars for television ads, it will be corrupt. If we leave it up to the politicians to clean up lobbying and finance reform, nothing is going to change.
The less you know about me, the easier it is to convince you that I am that character on screen.
This is the high point of my day, ... This movie is about how any single act by any single person put out of context is damnable.
I didn't do this movie because I thought it was going to be pro or con or took a stand and sort of cram down people's throats one point of view.
Politics and acting are very closely tied. The job is to convince.
If you ignore the murdering and the conniving, Francis Underwood is an effective politician.
A man can convince anyone hes someone else but never himself.
Anyone with a internet connection and an idea can develop an audience
I think what we have seen in terms of gay teenagers committing suicide because of bullying is anguishing. I think young people, if they are feeling like they are confused, need to know that there are people to talk to and that there are places they can go and not feel alone. But I feel that they have just as many rights as I do to not be bullied.
The less you know about me the easier it is to convince you that I'm the character on screen.
I've taken the experiences that I've had in the theatre and applied them to film and television and now games.
I sense a little Brian Boitano in there.
