For me, obviously anything that reduces the amount of acting required and makes the process more of an experience, rather than having to synthesize, is incredibly helpful. There were definitely some hardships and some challenges, but eventually all of those hardships and challenges had a positive effect on the work.

I don't just look at things as an actor. I've also written several films, so I look at it as a storyteller and I know if something worked and should have been in there for the benefit of the story and the benefit of the character.

Most people that work in [show] business, if they're not gypsies by nature, become gypsies, just because of the reality of this business.

Everybody, at some point in their life, has fallen down and not felt like getting back up, but you have to, no matter how difficult it is.

I think the work is always going to be much better when it's important and personal to you.

And I just want to work with good directors and good people.

I find aspects of the industry tedious and hard to manage.
