I don't know how to be like a Bill Murray or a Will Ferrell, these guys who know how to make a line funny just by, I don't know, some extra-sense perception. I only know character and emotion and real acting; that's all I know how to do.

Why people pick me for the roles that they do is a bit of a mystery.

I've never been someone who's been given work because of the way I look or because I have some box office appeal. I get work because people know I'm swinging as hard as I can, trying to connect, giving it my level best. I have a face for radio, but here I am doing what I do.

I think just getting a movie done is an accomplishment in itself.

A lot of times, good improv is when both people, or however many people are in the scene, really have no idea what the next thing you're going to say is.

A lot of times, mainstream critics are much tougher on small, independent movies because they can be.

I give as much as I can, and it's up to someone else to turn it into a movie. Good luck to you!
