You Can Do Things In Twin Scenes

I'm Not A Very Methodologically Pure Actor. Almost Every Time That I Start, I Feel Completely At Sea. Always At The Beginning I Feel Like A Fraud, Really, Because I'm Never Sure How To Get Started.

I Don't Think You Should Sit Around And Wait For People To Give You An Opportunity To Express Yourself Or Do Your Work, Or Whatever. Actors Have To Be Producers And Writers Have To Be Producers.

I'm A New Yorker, You Know.

I've Never Acted Before In A Movie I've Directed. This Felt Like The Time To Do It Just Because The " Leaves Of Grass" Movie Itself Is So Much Of A Platform For The Lead Actor. It's Really Written For An Exciting Performance And It Really Depends On The Audience Watching An Extraordinary Actor Having A Great Time Pulling Off This Feat. It Makes Sense To Me As A Director To Act In Support Of That.

Screenplays Aren't Written To Be Read, They're Written To Be Made Into Movies.
