Actors use who they are to be someone else, but I would hate to ever think I'm playing myself. It's imagining being someone else that is the key motivating thing for me. So when people want to know about me, it makes me a bit unnerved.
My whole deal when I do accents or dialects is I gotta fool the locals. If I fool the locals then I've done my job.
A movie camera is like having someone you have a crush on watching you from afar - you pretend it's not there.
