I've done a lot of sorts of films that are under the radar.
best movies
I've been in more than 20 movies. You just do the best you can and try to make a living.

I think a lot of theater actors that were great, like Walken or Glenn Close, later became film actors.
age mom saw theater
I saw things at an early age because my mom was a theater actress. I did a play with her when I was 10 years old.
people
I always do drama. It's just that some people laugh at it and some people cry.
ageing reverse spent
After 40, you want to reverse the ageing process. That's complicated for me because I spent so many years wanting to be older.
people
Some actors don't want to, but I prefer to. I like to collaborate. Sometimes you have to keep it to yourself, and people want to do their own thing.
age clark knew might
Clark Gregg and I are around the same age. He has been an actor and is a writer. But with a first-time director, there is a way to talk about things they might not know. Because Clark was an actor, though, he knew more about the process than most first-time directors.

Anjelica Huston and Kelly MacDonald are both really special. Anjelica has such a fresh point of view about acting and doesn't seem jaded at all. She seems more like a student and yet she is veteran actor who really brings it.

It's fun to improvise, but I still think it's better to have a great script, you know, like a Charlie Kaufman script.

I think of myself as a journeyman actor. I've got some talent and I work hard, but people like Brando or Pacino - those people are touched by God.

Hollywood constantly wants to label you and type you into a certain category, 'Oh he's a comedy guy,' or the weirdo character guy or the villain.
break brown danced girlfriend good james
I used to break dance. I can do some good James Brown footwork. But now I think I've danced too much. My girlfriend made fun of me: 'Enough with the dancing.'
daydream imagination mainly sort studied teaches technique using
I've studied a technique called the Sanford Miesner technique, that teaches you how to focus. It's mainly about daydreaming. And the technique's really about imaginary circumstances. Using your imagination to sort of daydream about stuff. It makes you emotional in a scene.
