I, Myself, Am Strange And Unusual.

I Love My Job. But All The Stuff That Comes With It, The Thought Of Being Propelled Into The Limelight Again Is Not Something I Sit Around And Fantasize About, Certainly. I'd Much Rather Just Do My Work, And Then Go Home And Read My Books And Watch Movies.

When I Was Young, I Was Really, Really Obsessed With Gena Rowlands And John Cassavetes. Because My Mom Was A Projectionist In College, She Was Somehow Able To Get A Real Projector. And She Had Some Connections, So She Would Get Real Prints, And We'd Put Up A Sheet. The First Movies I Saw Were To Kill A Mockingbird [1962], Gigi [1958], A Woman Under The Influence [1974]. Then When I Was Old Enough To Be Able To Rent Movies, I Went Through A Very Big Cassavetes Phase.

There Are Actors I Know Personally, Or I've Heard Them Say, "the Less Known About Me, The Better, Because I Just Want People To Think Of Me As The Character." I Think Matt Damon Said That Recently. He Has A Point And I Think I Get That.

Even Though 'heathers' Didn't Make A Lot Of Money, I Really Was Able To Transition Into A Situation Where People Thought I Could Play An Attractive Role Because Of It.
