You just have to go with a good story and a script that you like and people that you like to work with.
I do know that people tend to do their best work when they're challenged and stimulated by their peers.
I think what makes us human is our interconnectedness among people. It's our ability to form and maintain relationships. It's the barometer by which we call ourselves human.
I'm interested in people that don't always do the right thing, its much more akin to what I know about life.
It's not that the film is violent, it's that people have an issue with violence right now.
People lose people, we lose things in our life as we're constantly growing and changing. That's what life is is change, and a lot of that is loss. It's what you gain from that loss that makes life.
I'm interested in the impact my movies have on people and how it affects them, and what they like and what they don't like - and what they take away from it. What leaves an impression, you know?
There's a fine line for me between character acting and leading man acting - the best is a combination of the two.
Our agency is community based, so we have tried to adapt to fit the needs of the community. We are not the same as we were 40 years ago.
It allowed me to explore beats of the play in an academic environment where there is a lot of feedback.
Build your own pigeonhole! I subscribe to that philosophy.
I'd like to say as I get older, I try to move toward more sophisticated - more complex - material, but that's just not true. As I get older and more mature - as I started to mature as an actor and an artist - I start looking for stories that are really simple... simply told, straightforward stories that don't make any pretenses about what they are, or ones that are couched in other things to give you permission to enjoy them.
I find that as a kid, I could take much more violence, blood, guts, and gore, and you could bring it on and nothing was too shocking for me as a kid or teenager. And now, I'm at 35 and my tolerance for that stuff is much less. As I grow older and closer to the grave, that stuff becomes more and more disturbing to me.
We always need more tutors, because there are students who are waiting for a tutor to help them improve their reading, writing, math, or basic computer skills.
