When I look at a character, whether he's good or bad, one scene or 10 scenes, I just have to find my way in.

In a normal movie, you'd never see one guy talk for an entire page, whether good or bad.

Emasculation does seem to be a theme in the roles that I choose.

It was always acting for me, since I was about 15. My middle brother always wanted to be a news anchor, so we always felt that he'd be the one to take over for dad, so we could go and do our thing.

A wide receiver like me wouldn't have won. The quarterback - or even the running back - always wins.

You have your vision and you need to be focused, but you have to listen. I never felt a sense that the wheels were going to come off because we're all friends and family. It was all good.

You have to know what you're shooting. Don't just make your movie in the editing room and just get everything you can on the day.
