You Choose Your Friends By Their Character

That's What Sets Apart One Actor From Another, And That You Can't Teach. You Can't Give Someone That. When You're Working, Putting A Character Together, Or In A Scene, That's Where Things Will Happen That You Have To Have The Intuition To Notice Them, And To Register Them.

I Took A Bit Of A Back Seat, I Had Kids And I Wanted To Focus On Them. There's That Period In The Late '90s, The Early 2000s, Where I Didn't Do A Great Deal.

Each Role You Play, They Set A Bar Of Challenges That You Meet. And In The Past, I've Played Characters That Emotionally Expressed Themselves A Bit More In A Physical Way. It Was A Joy, Actually.

Sometimes Directors Feel Like They Have To Justify That Hat That They Are Wearing They've Got On As A Director, And They Come In And They Tweak And Interfere.

The Thing A Drama School Can't Give You Is Instinct. It Can Sharpen Instinct But That Can't Be Taught, And You Have To Have Intuition. It's An Essential Ingredient.
