I'm no good at really anything that involves motor skills.

Actors dread working with studios because they dictate what you do in a way that independent movies can't.

I felt self-conscious going out in the street prior to ever even being in a movie. That's just me.

If I get no sleep the night before a show, I feel that performance is the best one.

I grew up in a secular suburban Jewish household where we only observed the religion on very specific times like a funeral or a Bar Mitzvah.

As an actor, you try to bring as much of yourself to a part to try and create a feeling of authenticity and emotional truth and resonance.

I write plays, and I have a musical that's starting to get produced now. That's what I would love to do, but it's so hard. The only reason people are reading my plays and musicals is because I'm in movies.
