To Be Honest, I Don't

I Suppose A Good Director Is Like A Teacher. I Think That Someone Like David Cronenberg Was Very Much Like A Teacher, Because There's An Openness, But A Certain Set Of Rules Of Behavior, And A Certain Conduct Expected. But There's An Atmosphere That's Relaxed And Conducive To Exploration, And That Is Created By Someone Like Cronenberg.

Some Actors Learn The Habit Of Promoting Themselves As A Brand - By Dressing In A Certain Way, By Going Out With A Certain Person - It Gives Them What They Obviously Want, Which Is To Keep A Level Of Fame. I'm Not Putting It Down.

I Like The Detail Work Of Telling A Story In Small Pieces, As Is Done In Movie-making, And Also The Long Leap Of Faith Needed To See A Theatre Performance Through Each Night. Both Require Focus And Self-discipline.

I Don't Think Special Attention Should Be Given To An Actor Or A Singer Or A Baseball Player Or A Soccer Player More Than Anyone Else, But They Do Have An Opinion Like Anyone Else.

When There Is Conflict, It's Good To Step Away, Even For Five Minutes, Because You Could Say Terrible Things That You Can't Take Back, So It's Best To Walk Away.
