I went to Notre Dame. I don't know if that has any relevance, but maybe we all had a little too much philosophy and theology.

I was an English major, so I love discussing possibilities and alternate theories.

I would not call myself Catholic anymore, but I went to 16 years of Catholic school: grade school, high school and college.

I love classical music and often listen to symphonies or opera in the morning.

If you think about filmmaking as an entire spectrum, starting with the writer and ending with maybe the marketing department, the actor's contribution is a rather slender band.

If the question was did we want to delay the revelation?... Yeah, you want to delay it as long as possible because the audience knows that that moment is coming and you want to make them wait for it. They have to suffer a bit.

It's because you have no power. You give them all the material and the cinematographer, the director, the editor, boy what they can choose... You better hope they like you because they can slice and dice and make you look like a damn fool when your face and body are up there on a 30-foot screen.
