I'm very perverse. If someone tells me I have to read a book, I'm instantly disinclined to do so.
I'm still waiting to hit it big. But there was the moment when I didn't have to work at the restaurant anymore, which is the milestone for every actor. When your job is just to be an actor and not to have to do anything else.
If I had been born with an aggressive character, then maybe my palmares would have been longer.
