When I was younger, I was reticent to be vulnerable on camera and everything I was doing was just a really finely honed defense mechanism from when I was a kid, and I was now using this to make a living on camera.
Acting has given me a way to channel my angst. I feel like an overweight, pimply faced kid a lot of the time - and finding a way to access that insecurity, and put it toward something creative is incredibly rewarding. I feel very lucky.
As a kid, I think I wanted to be the on-set dresser for 'Charlie's Angels'. My goals weren't lofty. No. I just wanted to someday quit my paper round and that was about it.
I was a really nervous kid. I was extremely sensitive. Incredibly perceptive.
I firmly believe that you can't manufacture chemistry with anyone, let alone a kid.
I know people that have blacked out that I party with that don't do anything irresponsible. They just act drunk. I don't think people should ever drink by themselves because they need to have friends around that can keep them in line in case they do blackout.
I'm a bit of an M&M nut. I like the blue ones. I pick them out.
Anyone that has worked in the restaurant industry, or the hospitality industry for that matter, will definitely relate to some of the aspects of this movie,
We talked to everyone to work the problem and tried to stay calm and cool. It feels good to have something you train so long for go well. You just never think this is going to happen to you.
My career has been an inch at a time.
It's very tricky to throw a morally flexible character onto the screen and have an audience empathize. It's always an exercise in restraint.
It was comical because you're at a firing range, all these people are so seriously shooting their little guns.
A nicely fitted two-button suit is the best thing any guy can have. Guys are lucky: We can wear a suit over and over, just with different shirts and ties.
Oh God, 'the game,' ... From what I remember, it's just a really disgusting exercise in homophobic futility ... I cannot even believe it made it into this movie. It's disgusting.
