I don't rehearse a lot. I try to keep it organic. Even in movies, the less I rehearse, the better I am.
'Hairspray' was a show I was involved in from the very first reading, and I was 19. And, 'Hairspray', was one of my favorite movies growing up.
There are definitely strictly independent movies. 'Gummo' is one. Another is one I made, 'Fresh,' a $3 million movie which Boaz Yakin directed.
Everything I know about the FBI came from movies! Right? The idea of these kind of uptight, conservative guys whose ties are tied too tight.
The first Disney movie I saw I think was 'Snow White.' I loved all the Disney princess movies.
I didn't really want to do another sequel. I go to those movies, and I just sort of enjoy them like a viewer.
I'm definitely interested in doing movies. I've always focused more on acting than singing because that's where my true passion lies.
Sinatra, here's a guy who plays a tough guy in all his movies, but was allowed to be vulnerable when he stepped up to the microphone.
I feel bad about a lot of the movies I see that teach kids that if they do bad, they'll win.
I've seen other artists put out movies that went straight to DVD, and no one cared. Maybe their own fans bought the thing, and that was fine.
I've just kind of been used to carrying movies. I look back and I'm just used to being in every single scene in a lot of pictures.
You might see some of the movies that I'm in where there are shades of drama or whatever, but for the most part, I don't get offered serious roles.
I watch and listen to movies today and am shocked by the way actors deliver their lines. Everybody mumbles now and I don't understand why.
There's always an imbalance with actors and actresses in the industry. And I think because there are just fewer movies overall being made, it's that trickle down effect.
I had fun doing a lot of low-budget movies and web series. And I got back into stand-up where I started.
I've seen many, many movies over the years, and there are only a few that suddenly inspire you so much that you want to continue to make films.
I'm the first to admit that I like going to, or my memories at least of going to Clint Eastwood movies or Charles Bronson or James Bond.
When I finished the trilogy of 'Pirates of the Caribbean' movies, I had a gear shift and thought, 'I need to take a moment to smell the roses.'
As a young actor, I found myself in all these movies at once, with two big trilogies and a Cameron Crowe film and working with Ridley Scott a couple of times.
It's only in relatively recent years that Hollywood became the playground of multinational corporations which regard movies and TV shows as a minor irritant to their overall activity.
I like movies a lot, and I feel really excited when I see a movie that moves me the right way.
