I was always drawn to tough girls. I liked that domineering thing.
Part of what I enjoy about the theatre and acting is that sense of history.
I'm drawn to people who share that sense of loss. All actors are trying to repair damaged relationships. I think that might be why I've been drawn to other actors.
I'm actually a very bad surfer, which is good because everybody likes a bad surfer. Nobody likes a good surfer.
Actors are as good as they allow themselves to be, and to portray life, you have to have as broad an experience of it as you possibly can, so everything's worth it.
I love having that creative discussion where, at the end of the day, you both feel better for having done it. Maybe it's a typically Jewish thing, where you sort of go at each other.
There's the private persona and the public persona and the two shall never meet
I really don't think there is anybody in the business with better eyes than Elijah Wood.
I manage to hide in my movies.
I get very nervous around famous people and I get nervous around beautiful women.
I get panic attacks in big crowds.
There's something cathartic about swearing 150 times after spending ten hours in the editing room.
Every girl I've gone out with has said something to me first.
As soon as you know what you're doing, you're doing it wrong. That's what I find with acting. As soon as it becomes padded, it becomes pat.
