character thinking numbers
When you're playing supernatural characters, there's an infinite number of possibilities with a character. And I also think they're wonderful and entertaining for the whole family. You don't have a high body count ...
character home next-day
I've gotten pretty good at leaving characters on the set. I go home and try to relax and regroup and be ready for the next day.
thinking might los-angeles
I think the paparazzi might have chased me out of Los Angeles.
students grows hopefully
I've always maintained that I see myself as a student. There's always something to learn and be challenged by and hopefully grow from.
believe rude way
I believe that there's a way to question authority with manners, with dignity. There's no reason to be rude about it.
country native-american visitors
I always see America as really belonging to the Native Americans. Even though I'm American, I still feel like a visitor in my own country.
guy understanding scene
Guy Pearce is very precise and clear about understanding the rhythm and the music of a scene.
intelligent roots people
Good science fiction is intelligent. It asks big questions that are on people's minds. It's not impossible. It has some sort of root in the abstract.
school character eye
Actors work with their look. I come from the Lon Chaney Sr. school of acting. I'll wear wigs, I'll wear nose pieces, I'll wear green contact lenses in my eyes. I'll do whatever I need to do to create a character.
children importance
Children, to me, are of the utmost importance. They're really the future, aren't they?
Celebrity is a word I take great umbrage with. I'm actively anti-celebrity.
art acting bigs
Acting is like any other art form, in that you have the option to go very big or go very small.
crazy character nuts
Hollywood didn't know if I was an actor or a nut or if I was this crazy character I was playing. I had developed an image of being a little bit unusual, different and wild.
thinking levels littles
I think on some level, all of us have a little bit of belief in the possibility of different energies and forces and things like that. Otherwise, we wouldn't be afraid of them. Or there wouldn't be so many movies about them.
