Trivia

Quotes
  • When I was a child, I had an active imagination, like all children do. I didn`t think that the way children play, where they pretend to be someone else, had anything to do with acting, but I eventually realized that what children do is exactly what acting is about: becoming someone else.
  • I got through phases. I eitheir want to do absolutely nothing, lie in the shade and eat Bon Bons, or else I want to be so busy I don`t know where I am.
