I was always curious about motivation and intention, and really, that's a lot of what acting is.

Where else do you find great directors? Acting is one of the places.

I'm not that interested in working with impervious people.

I want to forget what I've learned about the character, but the reality is that you can't, because you've absorbed it. It's there in that moment when you need it. The hard part is to trust it.

If you fall in love with somebody you're working with, fine, but wait till your project is over.

That's one of the benefits of working on big budget films. You work with people who have a lot of experience and you get to learn a lot.

Don't hit people; don't let it get you too angry; remember that everything you do can and will be used against you. And take a breath and have some perspective.
