There Are Roles That You

One Of My Career Ambitions Was Fulfilled Working With John [hurt]. I Loved His Work Long Before I Ever Had The Idea Of Being An Actor, So I Was Nervous To Meet Him. I Was Like A Fanboy, Like That Annoying Character On 'saturday Night Live'. I'm Sitting There. 'do You Remember When You Were In 'midnight Express'? Remember That Scene You Were In?' And He Doesn't Disappoint.

I Drank For About 25 Years Getting Over The Loss Of My Father, And I Took The Anger Out On Myself. I Did A Good Job At Beating Myself Up Sometimes.

Whats Fascinating Is That When You Write A Script, Its Almost A Stream Of Consciousness. You Have An Idea That It Means Something, But Youre Not Always Sure What. Then When You Get On The Set, The Actors Teach You.

I Had A Guitar When I Was 6 Or 7, A Plastic Guitar With The Beatles' Faces On It. It Would Be A Collector's Item Now. It Would Fetch A Hefty Sum, I Imagine.

And Costume Is So Important For An Actor. It Absolutely Helps To Get Into Character; It's The Closest Thing To You, It Touches You. Some Actors Like To Go Into Make-up And Then Put Their Clothes On, But I Like To Dress First; That's My Routine.
