It's A Weird Feeling When People Are

To Play A Repressed Gay Man, I Had To Explore What Life Was Like In An Era Of Sexual Repression.

I Insist On Keeping A Level Head. I've Maintained The Same Exact Home Life That I’ve Had For 20 Years. All I See Is More People Looking At Me Than Before. But, You Know, Who Cares? You Just Can't Obsess Yourself With This Fame Stuff.

What I Would Do In Order To Be Popular Was, I'd Put Myself On Line And Joke Around And Be Funny, And I Was Always Known As The Crazy Kid.

The Challenge For Me Was Not Just The Prosthetic Work And How To Move Like An Older Man Would Move, But More So How To Have 50 Years Of Experience In The Workplace And Talk To A Young Robert F. Kennedy As If He Was Some Political Upstart That Didn't Know What The Hell He Was Talking About. That Was The Big Challenge [in The J. Edgar Hoover Mоvie].

We [ With Russel Crowe] Had An Arabic Coach There [ In The Body Of Lies] That Was Really Helpful, Because It Was More So Than Any Accent. You Have To Be So Exact, And There's Different Dialects Of Arabic From Country To Country So It Was Really, Really Difficult To Tell You The Truth. And One Of The Hardest Things I've Ever Had To Do Language-wise, Because It Comes From The Throat. It's Different. And Also Learning About The Customs And The Culture And All That, So We Had Advisors For That Sort Of Thing.
