We don't have sources who are dissidents on other sources. Should they come forward, that would be a tricky situation for us. But we're presumably acting in such a way that people feel morally compelled to continue our mission, not to screw it up. ↗

Actors are able to trick themselves into treating anything as if it's fantastic. It's a kind of madness really. ↗

I start from scratch with each movie; I wipe the slate and I certainly don't rely on some bag of acting tricks I've amassed over the years. ↗

Planning a career, I always find that such a tricky thing, because I don't have much of a plan, really. ↗
