fill forced form tax
I think, basically, I am an actor. Sometimes I'm an actor who's writing and sometimes an actor who's directing, but I think if I'm forced to fill out a form for my tax return, 'actor' is the first thing I write down.
perpetual state
I picture Generation X as young adults living in a state of perpetual adolescence.
notion perhaps
I had a very misguided notion of what 'network notes' were. I thought they were well-meant suggestions, perhaps urgently meant, but just suggestions nonetheless. And actually, they're demands. You have to do them, or you will not be paid.
defined serves
I'm a Jesuit when it comes to structure, but I really think that structure is defined by character. Everything serves that master.
comedy funny love showing trying until work
I really love showing up at work at 10 A.M., trying to make it funny until 3 P.M., and then going home. It's like comedy bankers' hours.
instilled
My first show was 'No Exit.' You couldn't find a more pretentious beginning, but it also instilled some sense of quality.
dressed fantastic
After my first movie was released, my wife and I went Bouley. A fantastic meal. The whole thing, getting dressed up, acting very adult-y, a lot of fun.
movies stage
I never thought about movies. I never thought about Hollywood. It was just being on the stage and being in New York.
invited promptly school thrown
I was going to be in an acting school in London, and then I promptly got thrown out of an acting school in London. Well, it wasn't that I got thrown out as much as I was not invited back, which is the same thing, just more polite.
