I haven't had a lot of comedy come my way as a performer.
I enjoy acting more and more than when I was 17.
humor
I don't think I would describe my sense of humor. Doesn't sound like the kind of thing I'd do.
fine
If you don't hurt anybody or try to steal anything, you'll be fine in the South.
spirit
You can't instruct an audience to laugh, but what you can do is read well and understand the spirit and subtleties, if there are any, in the dialogue.
good movies worked
I have worked on very good movies that have been buried, and I've worked on some resounding mediocrities that have been paraded through the marketplace like they were masterpieces.
politics work
If you want to know about my politics, the only way to do that is to look at my work.
people mind together
As an actor to watch an audience of people howl together in a single mind as a result of work you've done together with friends is a privilege.
art mistake different
I've worked with more than 50 directors and I've paid attention since day one. That's pretty much been my education, apart from studying art history and shooting with my own cameras. I've seen 50 different sets of mistakes and 50 different ways of achieving.
mars earth clue
I haven't a clue if there is life on other planets but I'd be charmed if we found a unicellular organism on Mars. It would change our whole concept of life on Earth.
fun hard-work acting
Acting is fun for me and it doesn't really matter how, whether it's hard work or easy work, it's always fun.
fun
I don't do anything that is not fun. I just don't do it.
lunch important cinema
The most important question in American cinema, I've learned, is 'When is lunch?'
thinking people west-coast
No, I don't think about the myth of the West. It's not the kind of thinking I do. That's more suited to people who live in big towns on the West Coast or East Coast, people who stay under a roof, in a room, all the time.
