I have always thought if you are going to make a film, it's much better to have an original script that will play to film's strengths.
When I was living in Boston, I worked in this store that played the college radio station. I had to listen to it all day, and I didn't care for most of it.
I try to do as many of my own stunts as possible. If you keep on taking yourself out of the role you play, you lose the thread of the character.
I think back story can help guide your choices, but when you're playing a scene, you're not making choices; you're just intuitive.

If we don't start playing better on defense, it's going to be hard. We can't just sit there and win shootouts.
I go out there with whatever the coaches call, and whatever they do, I just go out there, and I'm the player. Coaches coach, and players play.
I don't ever react to a situation. My preference is to reflect upon the circumstances & act as if I were a baby who is in possession of a new toy to play with.
Clinton has played a major role in giving companies like Cipla credibility, for which I will always be grateful.

I was a late bloomer. I was a kinda shy little kid, definitely a child of the dark side. I wanted to play guitar and be in a rock band.
The way I write is that I'll actually have a conversation out loud with myself. In a weird way, I just kind of get schizophrenic and play two characters.
I don't care about image and all that nonsense. I'm in sweat pants every day. I don't play the game at all.
