In the book, I tell the story of seeing old movies when I was young and acting out scenes at home. Now I get scripts, and I act them out.
My wife says that stage acting is like being on a tightrope with no net, and being in the movies, there is a net - because you stop and go over it again. It's very technical and mechanical. On stage you're on your own.
Everyone thinks acting is easy. It's far from easy, but it's the most gratifying thing I do.
I've never lost my appetite for acting; it's innovative and challenging.
