I love films for the fact that it is like working under a microscope. It is sort of like a laboratory.

Part of the work is determining through what instrument you are playing. Actors are physical, olympian storytellers and we should be able to create entire landscapes with nothing.

We make a contract within ourselves as actors or directors or writers about how much of ourselves we let into projects. You can actually figure out before you work on something how much blood you will have to let emotionally.

The loneliness is when you pick up and move, even if you are not originally from that place, and you have some memories that you want to embrace. Having a life in transit, I feel like you are always looking out the back window.

You have to work with what you are given, even in Shakespeare. we have our form and it is important that we free ourselves through it.

In every character I play, I try to imbibe something. Every film is a learning process for me.

I think that I have sold out sometimes.
