Anytime you ride against the best in the world it becomes a learning process.
Learning about all those different things psychologically - about grief and my own addictions and problems and stuff like that and really getting an education on it I think it was part of the process of it learning about it and trying to lick it.
We must expect to fail... but fail in a learning posture determined no to repeat the mistakes and to maximize the benefits from what is learned in the process.
I had never picked up a basketball before. I went through a grueling audition process. It was almost as if I was learning to walk. It would be like teaching somebody to dance ballet for a role.
You made a lot of mistakes and you wrote a lot of crap. But it was all part of the learning process.
Concerning culture as a process one would say that it means learning a great many things and then forgetting them and the forgetting is as necessary as the learning.
Diligent as one must be in learning one must be as diligent in forgetting otherwise the process is one of pedantry not culture.
The fact is that the learning process goes on and so long as the voices are not stilled and the singers go on singing some of it gets through.
Information is a source of learning. But unless it is organized processed and available to the right people in a format for decision making it is a burden not a benefit.
In every character I play I try to imbibe something. Every film is a learning process for me.
