I think it had something to do with my love of music, especially rock music.

You make the choice. You look at each scene and you make sure that this is not a person deceiving people.

I was a little nervous coming in mostly because my first scene was with Martin Sheen, who I'm a huge fan of.

Being able to fantasize for a couple of days at being a rock singer surpassed most things I've done on stage.

If you're onstage and you're improvising and nothing's happening, people are racing for the door. But the director can go shopping later and pick up pieces and moments and insert them.

I don't think anyone sets out to do something bad, it's just that it's very difficult.

It's always best not to be thinking a hell of a lot while you're acting, because you want it to be as spontaneous as possible, not too intellectual. Just behaving and listening to other people who you're doing scenes with. I always like the latter when it looks easy, even though it may not be.
