I learned a long time ago: You're in the entertainment business. You're not in the reality business. One has absolutely nothing to do with the other.

You cant act for the editing. You just go in and do the scene the way you think is right.

Do whatever you're directed to do, and leave the rest of that technical stuff up to the director.

You can change a person's life in an instant; put him in a movie, and you start thinking differently, you want to be in another movie. It's like an addiction almost.

I think all actors are supposed to be character actors.

As far as carrying the American banner, you just do what's right for the kids.

I read the script and try not to bring anything personal into it. I make notes, talk to the director and we decide what kinds of shades should be in the character.
