Also, in my acting, I feel very much like a storyteller, exploring the flaws of the characters that I interpret. I look for the imperfections, and I love a character that is just so flawed.

There's a point where art is not subjective, and my example for that is Picasso. If you don't like Picasso, that's your problem.

I had no ambition to become an actor at all.

I started as a director and just fell upon acting.

I consider myself a storyteller, not really even an actor. I consider myself a storyteller.

I love playing bad. But my whole thing is usually villains that don't know that they're evil.

As an actor, it's hard to direct because, suddenly, you're not around. The thing which I hate about directing is the waiting game, but you've really got to wait it out and be resilient and keep it going and keep everybody motivated.
