I guess the characters I play may be at the more destructive edge of the spectrum, more damaged or whatever, but I find a lot of female roles uninteresting.

I like to play smart, three-dimensional women. I also like to play roles where the women are a little crazy. I just have a feel for crazy people.

When it's working, what acting is really about is getting into the essence of a moment in a creative, joyous way - through whatever frees you up.

Two things I'm trying to work on are openness and flexibility.

I tried to do the commercial thing. But I don't want to keep shoving Twinkies down everyone's throat. People are hungry for something of more substance.

I haven't gotten stuck with something because I just keep going, and I keep doing different things.

I see my job as an actor to be as good a channel as I can be. Acting is a gift, and I have respect for it.
