AMC has a track record for finding actors who have been working actors but not names yet and casting them.
I think anything that is expressed directly and as honestly as possible will last.
I knew I wanted to be an actor for a long time, but I was based out of Chicago and then I went to New York and I did 'The Upright Citizens Brigade' out there. I had a two-man show with a guy named Oliver Ralli who's now in the band Pass Kontrol, which is a big band out of New York.
