I Never Act. I Simply Bring Out

I'm An Optimist. I Hope If A Movie's Good That It Will Be A Success, But That's Not Always True, Just Because Of Popular Taste Or Any Other Reasons. When Something Doesn't Do Better Than It Deserves To In Your Mind, It's Pretty Transparent - You Usually Know Why. Is That A Comfort? Yes, Because It's Logical. Does It Make You Happy? No, Because If You Think A Movie Is Beautiful Or Interesting, You Want To Share It. Sometimes You Make Very Interesting Movies That Aren't Meant For Everybody. But This Is A Capitalist Society, So Everything Conspires To Put Value On Whether It Sells Or Not.

I Think On Some Level, You Do Your Best Things When You're A Little Off-balance, A Little Scared. You've Got To Work From Mystery, From Wonder, From Not Knowing.

The Bad Things About Theatre Get Balanced By The Good Things In Film And Vice Versa. So To Tell You The Truth, I Love It When I Can Go Back And Forth - It Feeds Different Parts Of You And Exercises Different Muscles.

I'm Not Attracted To Naturalism, I'm Not Attracted To Behavior, I'm Attracted To Dance. I'm Attracted To Gesture, I'm Attracted To Singing With Your Voice, As Opposed To Having A Natural Manner. I'm A Theater Actor First, So That Probably Influences A Lot Of My Approach. And I Think In Many Ways, Naturalism Has Ruined Movies.

I've Been In Very Few Flat-out Comedies. But I Feel Like I've Always Made Comedies.
