I love actors, regardless of where they are in their skill level. There's something terribly satisfying about working with someone who's really learning.

I certainly didn't have a nanny.

What I find so interesting about people is the choices they make, and how that effects their behavior, their sense of self and their relationships.

Traits like humility, courage, and empathy are easily overlooked - but it's immensely important to find them in your closest relationships.

My castings sort of go in phases. There'll be several icy professional parts - a lawyer or a cop. And then there'll be the intelligent-but-wounded group and then the period things. It goes in sequence.

The thing about death is that it's honest. I go to things that have a core of honesty about them and there's nothing more honest than death.

Ask "why" until there is no more "why."
