I mean I kind of remember... I'm 36 now so it's kind of hard for me to relate to what it was like when I was 25 or 24 but I do remember a period in time when that's how I defined who I was by the music I listened to and the movies I went to.
I think it's more interesting to see people who don't feel appropriately. I relate to that because sometimes I don't feel anything at all for things I'm supposed to and other times I feel too much. It's not always like it is in the movies.
I don't know many women who can relate to Sharon Stone and the kind of movies she does. I don't know a lot of guys who can relate to Tom Cruise's movies because they're on a kind of fantastic level.
I like movies I can relate to.
Everyone related to me in my circle was from church: church friends church school church activities. All my friends weren't allowed to watch MTV or go to PG-13 movies or listen to the radio so I didn't really know anything different. That's how I was raised.
The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder.
The regular guy still relates to him and Howard is a $500 million guy now who dates a model and drives about in a limo all day. But Howard still knows how to make a plumber laugh and those guys still have him on in the morning because he is a real talent.
I naturally wanted to be saved so when I came home I told my mom I wanted to be confirmed. That's the way I related to it being raised an Episcopalian. I went to Dallas and got confirmed.
Well my mom is single and we've both been single at the same time over the last ten years so I really related to the bond between my character and Diane's.
The struggle of my life created empathy - I could relate to pain being abandoned having people not love me.
