Being a salesman and an actor were not that dissimilar: It is a good lesson in covering up your feelings. No one wants to buy from someone who looks depressed.

You grow up a lot in terms of your understanding of the industry and how to deal with the corporate things.

You're good salesman, if you make people buy product they don't need.

It's nice to be asked to do good projects.

I try and do films I know I'm going to enjoy watching as well as being in.

You'd have to have one hell of an imagination to completely make up a story, but historians are very anal about what they think should be portrayed on screen. Thankfully they don't make movies; we do.
