You have been told that Real Life is not like college, and you have been correctly informed. Real Life is more like high school.

I have a holistic need to work and to have huge ties of love in my life. I can't imagine eschewing one for the other.

All that attention to the perfect lighting, the perfect this, the perfect that, I find terribly annoying.

All an actor has, I think, is their heart, really,...that's the place you go for your inspiration. If my heart wasn't filled with them, where would I get stuff? What would I have to express?

Chris Cooper is one of my favorite actors in the world. I've seen him in most everything he's done.

I never look a gift horse in the mouth. And I've been really, really lucky. I'm aware of that. And my career has been given to me by the people I've worked with, no question. The actors, the directors, the cinematographers, the writers, all of whom gave me the opportunity to work in the way that I have and I'm really grateful.
