There Was A Little Bit Of Hesitancy

I Would Love To Be A Voice In This Maelstrom Of Chaos And Obsessive Celebrity Infatuation That Says, 'let's Talk About Something That Matters'.

I Came Up During The 'star Wars' Generation And That Was Sort Of The Thing I Plugged Into Much More. It Was A Little Before My Time And I Think It Was Sort Of Grappling With These Intellectual Ideas That Were A Little Advanced For My Young Mind. At The Time. But Now I Have A Much Deeper Appreciation For It.

I'm A Big Believer In The Notion That Our Greatest Potential Lies In Our Darkest Parts. To A Certain Extent It's Only In Facing Those Parts Of Ourselves That We Can Truly Grow, And I Think That's True Of All Of The Characters I've Played, Certainly In The Past Few Years.

If It Was A Biopic About Glenn Greenwald, I Would Have Immersed Myself More Fully In His Personal Life And Gotten To Know Him As Much As I Could, But Because It Was Much More About His Relationship To This Particular Situation, To The Guardian, To Laura Poitras, And To Ewen Macaskill, And Edward Snowden, I Was Able To Really Learn A Lot About Him From Reading His Book And Reading His Many Articles And Accounts Of That Time.

Again, As A Gay Man I Look At That And Say There's A Hopelessness That Surrounds It, But As A Human Being I Look At It And Say 'why? Where's This Disparity Coming From, And Why Can't We As A Culture And Society Dig Deeper To Examine That?' We're Terrified Of Facing Ourselves.
