You really can have your dreams and at the same time have a family. But it has to be a really deliberate practice.
The problem to me is violence. It’s not cool to kill somebody or hurt people.
It’s a difficult undertaking. I’ve been married for four years and I see this movie as a cautionary tale about people who’ve gone deeply out of communication.
I do readings at the public library. I just did a benefit scene night for my old acting teacher.
