If the script is good, I find I can usually cry without too much trouble - in fact, the hard thing is trying to get me to stop. But I'm not really a crier in real life. I'm not a dramatic person, you see.

- Me

- Nov 07, 2020
I'm not trying to steer people in a direction. I'm just trying to move them. Wherever it takes them, it doesn't matter to me. I just want them to be moved in one way or another, and that's a hard thing to do, I think.

- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's a hard thing to do, to be given a script, and know that you've got to turn up on the first day of the shoot - generally without having had any rehearsal - and present a character.

- Creativity
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- Die
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The hard thing about 'The Saint' was that my character was supposed to die, but then they reshot the ending based on tests and she lives. I created the character based on her dying - she would never have been as innocent otherwise. So I didn't have high expectations for that film.
- Hard
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's a hard thing for me to wrap my mind around the C word: celebrity. Rock stars are celebrities because they're larger than life. As an actor, you have to play the everyman and the everygirl.

- Hard
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
