Mostly in movies an actor has to come to a mark, an X, and deliver his line - but that's so artificial, that's not how people really behave.
As most actors/actresses, I don't like to watch my own movies, either, and I never look at the dailys while filming.
'Mean Girls' is literally one of my favorite movies. It's just such a classic. Everybody has seen it, and me and my friends quote it all the time.
I go to the movies a lot, and I regret when I see some actor that I used to like, to find them offering no more surprises.
I think I've done 200 plays and 125 movies, so I've been very lucky to have made a living at acting.
And like everybody else, I like the Rocky movies, but if you look at them again you can see all the misses, but the intensity of it, but that wasn't what this is.
As a kid, I liked the 'Halloween' movies and 'Nightmare On Elm Street' and all that kind of stuff. But as an adult, I really don't watch much horror, to be honest.
The theoretical casting part of movies is the funnest part. You really can imagine so many different versions of a story based on who's embodying it.
Well, acting has been a dream of mine since I can remember; being in the movies and acting, having those experiences.
I play drums and guitar, I snowboard, I do martial arts and acrobatics. I go to the movies every Friday.
Everybody has their own style. If you went to the movies every week and everybody acted the same way Tom Cruise did, boy, wouldn't that suck?
People come up to me all the time in New York. Not for autographs, but to talk about movies, often in a very scientific way.
I still can't get over the idea that respectable adults now go to see superhero movies and that such films get reviewed in the 'New Yorker.' Clearly, I am seriously out of step with the times.
I'm not mad about movies, there are too many people involved in the making of them, and they lack a definitive creative focus.
I was lucky that audiences in Mexico liked my work. I was even luckier when I got to do movies and plays with my brothers.
I do not quote my own movies. I think I would be pretty insufferable if I did.
I can't say I was like a die-hard zombie fan, but I've definitely seen a few different zombie movies and TV shows.
Woody Allen movies notwithstanding, therapy, in the early eighties, was not exactly a hot conversation starter. Nor was it a favoured activity for dysfunctional couples or suffering individuals.
I spent a long time working in the movies to figure out that kind of acting and also how to write and produce for the screen.
Television moves fast, and you don't have the indulgences you have when you're shooting movies of so many takes because there are tight deadlines.
That TV show, 'After Thought,' is really exciting. It's a cross between 'Inception' and 'CSI' that I'm working on with Melissa Rosenberg from the 'Twilight' movies.
