The negative about acting is that you have to spend a great deal of time away from your friends and loved ones.
Douglas BoothI remember someone saying to my mom that it must be so glamorous to have a child acting in movies. They had no idea how hard it was for her.
Douglas BoothI'm quite severely dyslexic so I struggle with acting in certain ways. I always have to put in triple the amount of effort, which would always frustrate me a lot. I suppose that some people can just look at a script once and know it. That's not me. I really have to spend a bit of time with the lines. But it's my job and I've got better and better at it. If you're learning a lot, things start going quicker. Doing the lines with repetition and you just get it in your head somehow.
Douglas BoothI like to travel, but honestly I really like to just be at home in London and spend time with my friends.
