Theatre is organic, film is not. Theatre you come every day and you work with a group of people and you're are all up for it and you all get to do the whole thing every night, be it two hours or three hours. In film you work in two or three minute bits and it's never in chronological order and then someone takes that away and makes it look like it all happened, or that you gave that performance.

While data can only tell you what has happened in the past, it can in some ways give you a sense of what might be of interest to an audience in the future.

If youre not concerned about maintaining an image, you can pursue roads that another actor might not take.

Exposure to the arts and culture is enormously valuable.

It is not about whether you are an executive, a studio or a network. If you have a story or an idea you can build a following for it.

I cotton to the idea that people are much closer to being flawed; they have problems and dont always make the right choices.

Meeting the person you are going to be playing is very unique.
