For Me, The Motivation Really Was To

I Watch Many, Many, Many Independent Films Every Year That You See Once In A Film Festival And They're Never Heard Of Ever Again. Many Of Them Are Very, Very Good.

I Was Always Drawn Toward The Actor's Studio. I Studied At The Lee Strasberg Institute When I First Came To New York. One Of My Favorite Teachers Was One Of Al [pachino]'s Teachers, A Guy Named Charlie Laughton, Who Was Just A Wonderful, Wonderful Man.

Cgi Is To Me Like Watching A Cartoon. It Can Be Effective, If It's Done Well. A Lot Of Times You Don't Feel Any Real Risk. You're Watching A Bunch Of Computer-generated Graphics.

My Son Was Born Somewhat Late In My Life And I Just Found Myself Really Feeling Like I Didn't Want To Miss Out On Being A Parent And Being With Him, And Not Wanting A Situation Where I Was Constantly Pulled Back And Forth Between Being Present, And Having All These Other Pressures And Considerations.

There Is A Difference When You Work With Actors Who Have Worked On The Stage. When We're Out There In Front Of An Audience Eight Times A Week, You Can't Do It On Your Own.
