Directors don't get to see other directors at work - they're the only one on the set. i've met directors who've asked me what another filmmaker is like. so, there's probably nobody better placed to make all the comparisons and to pick up stuff than an actor.

The truth is, an actor's performance is the result of work by a lot more people than just the actor. when you see that character portrayed up on screen, there is the work certainly of the actor, but there's the work of the editor, there's the work of what the camera was doing. what the music was doing, all of the above.

I hated motivators - never been a motivator. motivation is like a warm bath, and you should take a bath probably, but you need more than that; you need strategy. i was a strategist, but nobody responded to that, so i was, like, "ok, what am i? i'm a coach. i'm not a guru." as an athlete, i had great coaches, and i was a better athlete than many of them, but they still were better than i was as a coach because they could see when i couldn't see. i thought, that's great, because i'm not better than anybody, but i do have the skills that i can help people.
