I've Realized As Well After Five Years

I Take Acting Very Seriously. I Put Everything I Have And Know Into It.

I Do Enjoy Reading Some Science Fiction.

The Sea Always Offers Up Incredible Stories Of Survivors' Fortitude. Myths Of A Lot Of Countries Have Variations On That.

You Have A Certain Objectivity, As A Member Of The Audience, And You Can Come Away Maybe Being Provoked Into A Certain Discourse Or A Certain Arena Of Questioning, Regarding How You Would Deal With Things That Your Character Has To Deal With. Whereas When You're Doing A Film, Once You Start Asking, "what Would I Do?," You're Getting The Distance Greater Between Yourself And The Character, Or You're Bringing The Character To You, Which I Think Is Self-serving, In The Wrong Way. The Idea Is To Bring Yourself To The Character.

Sometimes I Have Experienced At The Start Of A Film You're Very Excited And Enthusiastic And You've Done All Your Preparation Internally And Externally And You Start The Film And It's All Go... Then Your Attention Goes Somewhere Else. Your Energy Goes Into Telling The Story, So You Don't Have The Same Amount Of Energy To Be Objective, And That's Okay Because Sometimes You Become A Subject Of The Story And You're Inside It So Much That You Don't Need To Keep On Looking On The Outside.
