Well, I've never been in a touring rock band, it was all just high school and college, playing toga parties in frat houses.

I don't separate Robert DeNiro's comedy from the serious stuff. The one thing I realize working with him in all of his work, is that he doesn't do anything unless something happens to him in scenes - unless something happens to make him react. He never came in with a set idea of how he was going to do it, he never came in with guns blazing. He would just show up and wait to see what happened.

It's not your responsibility to have the bigger picture in mind. But, the downside is that then, a lot of times, you're disappointed by the movies that are made around you.

The thing with being able to do accents is that it's still completely separate from being an actor.

Anybody who is in freelance work, especially artistically, knows that it comes with all the insecurity and the ups and downs. It's a really frightening life .

It's great to play a rock star. Maybe not so great to be one.

I guess Ive always wanted to push the boundaries as an actor.
