#vulnerable

I saw a crow building a nest, I was watching him very carefully, I was kind of stalking him and he was aware of it.

I know certainly, when one job draws to a close, that I feel I'm simply never going to work again. No one will ever want me for anything ever again. I think that's a vulnerable moment in every actor's life, and it happens every time you finish a film. ↗
