fun lying night
I'd be lying if I said it wasn't fun to go to these nights out, like the opening of a film or something, but I dip in and out of it.
thinking acting might
Acting, music, painting... it's very subjective. So what I might think is a great actor, you might think is not a very good actor at all.
art thinking listening
I think all art is subjective - that whoever's watching it or listening to it will decide whether it's good or bad.
character trying stories
For me, what makes great actors, always is how truthful they are to the character and the story and the emotion that they're trying to tell.
arm board surfing
I loved going surfing down on Venice Beach. I'd go out with a board under my arm and think, 'I can't do that in Cranhill.'
age love work
Then there are actors my age like Ethan Hawke, he's in 'Moby Dick,' I love his work. I've been lucky. Alfred Molina, he has real class.
characters job main rather trying
To play one of the main characters in it, it's not like the kind of thing you don't do. Oh, I'd rather not play Pippin in "Lord of the Rings". . . . in fact, I'm trying to think - what else would you rather do, you know? I can't actually think of another job that I'd rather do.
