I grew up
in a large family. The house is always chaotic, and I usually somewhere retired and played himself in soldiers or dolls. My other toy was a tuba. I read a lot, although at school with a certain time ceased to study.
My mother
since childhood, very curious. Her family belonged to the local newspaper in Benton, Illinois, where I grew up. Mother always perfectly understood literally all over the world. She is one of those who are in a position to tell you about the recent bestseller about the last video, "U2", and at the same time to enumerate the works of K. C. Lewis and indicate how many points we got the Lakers in the first game of the season. It's just awesome! She is also very witty. The father was a different type of person. It is no longer in the world, but when I think about it, he rises before my eyes: a dark-haired, charming, elegant. He was a champion of the preservation of the environment and issued environmental magazine that Benton city coal mines - did father something of a pariah.
Most my
cherished the memory of his father? Childhood, I play football, and father always stands at the edge of the field, very impressive: white shirt, khaki pants, loafers and old sansenoy suede jacket. He always looked stylish.
To allwhat I know about the craft of the actor, I mostly got his head. College attended some courses, but for the most part, they have given me nothing.
Better education I was working with friends at the theatre "Steppenwolf". We, the alumni of the College, gathered and looked at the acting here is the angle: the work of this or something else? For me it's work, but there are people for whom acting is all-consuming, monotonous, destructive mind, turning into insanity, corrosive disease that affects the entire body. And I always said, "If you are not pleased with, who to you prevents to find a normal job? "
Whether it was bravery to play in the movie "Being John Malkovich"? I don't think from my side it was bravery. I was worried about the need to find a balance between my professional responsibilities and my right to privacy. But I had no idea that this project requires me courage. Just the thing struck me as brilliant. The script I was very amused. Only one scratched, mystical sort of thing: Charlie Kaufman says, as if nothing knew, but in the period, which he described, I actually lived in the house on Seventy-Fifth street. And for a moment I actually broke out in a cold sweat.
I don't have to Hollywood dislike. I am a simple guy from a small mining village in Illinois, and I complain about how I was treated in Hollywood? I get a lot of money for something that I work with great people, some of whom are my close friends. As for Hollywood movies... Well that is another question.
I don are not against the fact that a terrible movies bring big money. The trouble is not that the film X brought $ 300 million, and that the film Y was not removed and the film Z, and though it was removed, and brilliantly shot, no one is looking. Remember how I punched his film "the Dancer upstairs". Sent out a scenario familiar in Hollywood, and the same day I got a call one person and says, "I just fell in love with this script. A real miracle. A wealth of material. Very bright, very unusual, wildly interesting... " So we talked for about twenty minutes, and at the end of the conversation he said that he would not take scenario. They believe that the script about a policy or there about aliens no one will be interesting. And the reason they had more than enough.
More I hate the fact that people have bad taste. I stabenau.
Sexuality stands for almost everything. Okay, let's not "almost all", but in the art world sex tied very much. And when the actor plays, usually on some level, necessarily involved erotica.
The actor there should be a signature role. If someone says, "Oh, you brilliant'll get it, I can just see you in that way", it's a complete failure. If you all know exactly what role you fit, then you are not held as an actor.
The difference between theatre and cinema is that in the theater, the responsibility is yours. The cinema can do so, what role do you will not succeed. Stress can! But the theatre is not. No one can prevent you to play well in the play. When you see on stage is a really good actor, you realize at once: before you is a great actor. But understand this: the film can be adjusted, you will not be able to play well. I always argue with the old adage "the Camera never lies". I always say: "It is for this camera and there are".
There is nothing abovethan reading. Books are the main source of pleasure and inspiration, more important than the theatre, cinema or art.
I have already was once married and not ready to go through this. Essentially, which means "to marry"? I don't need special paper - I paper I know that I have to be close to his beloved and their children. And I don't think that my favorite needs a piece of paper that certifies that in a difficult hour, I did not run away. Because, if the hour of trial comes, no paper has no effect.
People constantly assert that violence in art stimulates violence in life. For example, I like Snoop doggie Dog. In his work many things that brought me memories, there are many in his own funny things. But see for yourself - I don't hate all women, I didn't want to buy a dozen guns and someone to shoot... I can accept this kind of music as a life-long observation of a certain individual. This particular worldview, based on a certain set of experiences and impressions. And nobody has the right to declare this world good or bad.
Of course, it does not follow that the violence in works of art has no effect on people. Yet what is the effect. I've always funny when I hear some of the experience: "Oh, no, violence does not impact on the viewer... " If not affected, why them in the film to include?
Actually
I don't really like those crazy types that I have ever played. Yes, temper my temper, I can be angry, can judge categorical, but understand this: I have always tried to curb these impulses, and helps me in my curiosity. Here is an example. Imagine that I have a friend - a young Italian gay. And now I see him in the dressing room every day come the Jews forty-five years: it is with these men spends time, then goes with them to the restaurant... In me wakes up the curiosity. I feel no fear, no anger, no disgust - only curiosity. I would like to learn more about these people. The laws of morality and ethics has nothing to do with, the principles have nothing to do with what curiosity and only curiosity.
In the film industry everything is dictated by fashion. At the moment in fashion hero who runs around and fires and explosions and fighting. But I think that very soon people from all will get tired, and we will start to produce something else. I'm sure on one hundred percent. I think in the near future movies like "Lethal weapon" retire there, where'd hulahoop. As once said Faulkner about the same story: "His sorrows do not chafe at the broken bones of the world and leave no scars. He writes not about the heart, and gonads". So things are now. A large part of the film is not about the heart, and gonads. But the situation will change. And if not changed, then the human race will disappear, it doesn't matter, small loss.
Me
alarming the cult of celebrity. It seems to me an ominous need to live a full virtual life in which your sorrow, joy and passion is not as interesting as my experiences. Or, for example, experiences of George Clooney and johnny Depp.
Among fans of caught just terrible people. Somehow me throughout England persecuted one. Comes up and says, "I'm Billy Gibbs, give me money". Without a break. He kept saying, "I got the film, I pulled out the tape. He meant that somehow provided me with a film or something. It was such a crazy obsession. He climbed up to me and climbed until I gave him several times on the head, so he shut up.
By the wayit was not the first time when I hit the person. Once I threw on some guy in Central Park. There is nothing special to tell. Just some guy was me saying, "Othe**camping from me." It was not a fan of my art, and just another one of those new York crazies, which easily look impossible, and cut them down his throat and released intestine.
I prefer
fantastic realistic films. After all, what is by and large the reality of the movie? Standing in front of the camera several millionaires and is portrayed in the face of suffering. What there a realism!
