It's so enjoyable to play a bad guy, you know.

I realized that work doesnt beget work. Good work begets work. So I got a lot more patient and stopped worrying about working all the time.

Everyone's different. I mean, some people write journals for their characters and stuff, but that was never really my area.

I feel that as a writer and as a performer too. I never really thought about backstory for characters. It was much more of a musical approach: You learn a melody, and then you sing it, I suppose, or you find a rhythm or a cadence that works for the material. And then it's sort of about hitting that note correctly and finding those beats.

Now I write often. I decided that I need to write for myself - I can't really direct other people's material.

I was watching Orson Welles and Jean Vigo films at a ridiculously young age.

I look pretty different. Luckily for me, I don't get harassed or anything like that.
