I don't believe actors who say they don't bleed into their characters. It's absolutely impossible not to.
I'm a fan of the fan. I'm a fan of the active devotee who lives his life believing in something, who represents to me the character of a person that is very confident and sure of himself. Those are people I admire.
I do believe in us as actors and directors and writers and producers and also as movie-goers. We have much more power than we believe we have. Without our ticket, studios can't make traditional decisions.
I love skin. I don't believe the body is something to hide.
