When I receive a new role, I completely become my character.

I got into acting to get my foot in the door for film-making.

I'm doing 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower'. It was a book I read when I was younger, and it just changed my life, and I just wanted to be a part of it.

What you choose to do professionally is a reflection of yourself and I take that seriously as an actor. But even as a filmmaker, I take it even more seriously.

You're not really just a filmmaker that makes a movie good most of the time. It's everybody involved; it's a collective effort.

You would assume that a filmmaker should know how to edit, but pretty much every filmmaker I've worked with doesn't know how to edit.

When I'm back at home it's just reality. I kind of separate myself from Hollywood.
