Dad, I really want to become an actor, but if this is what it's all about, I don't want to do it.

This created world really helped me as an actor. It heightened everything, which made it more dangerous, more interesting and more liberating.

The role of Rimbaud is one of the most important roles to play for a young actor.

I don't ask other actors questions. I think that's too intrusive. I just watch. I don't want to be constricted to an idea of what acting is by anyone else. I want to take my own education.

The bottom line is, when it comes to an actor and his performance, whether nominated or not, it simply has to do with whether that character had enough resonance with the audience. You know, to the filmgoers. And that something that you can't control.

I've always been spontaneous and outgoing... I've tried lots of things so I've got some good life experiences, which is great 'cause it means I've got lots of material to work with as an actor.
