Alfred MolinaI think enjoying each other in a creative way is usually a result of when you're doing something that might be problematic - might be a little difficult to uncover. I've done it once in a stage production; we came in for two days and, just as an experiment, the director had us reading each other's roles.

And I've never really planned anything - I've always looked at my job in a rather simplistic way. It's like being a plumber.

Both jobs are very different, but all the tools come out of the same box. That's the way I look at acting.
