Any idiot can get laid when they're famous. That's easy. It's getting laid when you're not famous that takes some talent.

I did all the dialect work, all my character work completely by myself.

I think everybody reacts to entertainment with a different kind of visceral way, probably mostly based on their own personal experiences.

I just let the work speak for itself. An actor is not afraid to take risks; to put on different hats; to be a good guy, a bad guy, a victim, an abuser. There are all kinds of people in the world, and playing them is what acting is all about.

As I was coming up on the stage, there was one source that could make or break you, the New York Times. Inevitably there would be one actor singled out for a better review, or worse, than somebody else. The effect of that was cancerous, divisive.
