When people come together too young, they try to become one person. As you get older, you realize that you don't want to become one person because then you lose the person you are.

I'm not a very methodologically pure actor. Almost every time that I start, I feel completely at sea. Always at the beginning I feel like a fraud, really, because I'm never sure how to get started.

I just like working with smart people.

Fame is very corrosive and you have to guard very strictly against it.

If you feel like someone just knows what this is about to their core, they're going to have that special confidence in it.You stop looking at the seams and they start inhabiting the same space and start interacting with each .

The deeper you go with the character, the more you see the layers start to peel away. It's more challenging to me, but it's also just interesting. Those are the things I like to watch. I like to watch the evolutions of something.

You dream as an actor's director of letting moments breathe through two-shots.
