I Worked On A Conservation Project In East Africa... Too Much Of This Type Of Stuff Can Get You Wrapped Up In Your Own Work And I Love It.

More From Edward Norton

To Me, Fight Club Was A Comedy. When [david] Fincher Sent Me The Book And I Read It, The First Thing I Asked Him Was, "this Is A Comedy, Right?" He Said, "yeah, That's The Whole Point," And I Said, "okay, I'm In." I Certainly Wasn't Imagining Myself As A Dramatic Actor When I Was Running Around In My Underwear In That Film.

People Wrestle Sometimes Making Movies, And I Think That Conflict Is A Very Essential Thing. I Think A Lot Of Very Happy Productions Have Produced A Lot Of Very Banal Movies.

When I Think Of My Background, If I Was Privileged On Any Level, It Was In Terms Of The Kind Of Exposure To Experience And Bohe-mian Cultural Influence That My Parents And My Uncles And My Grandfather Gave Me. On Both Sides I Come From An Extremely Eccentric, Artsy, Intellectually Intense, Activist Family.

As An Actor, I Don't Have Any Politics. As An Actor, I'm Driven More By An Authentic - I Would Say An Obsessive-compulsive-disorder Level-fixation On Mimicry, Tonality Of Voice, To Literally Imitate Something Until I Can Just Disappear Into It.

Obsessive Compulsive

There Are Things You Do For The Fun Of Doing Them Or To Work Or To Hang With Certain People.
