"I didn't like movies. You see, in a play you become the play, because you start in the beginning and end up at the end of the script. Movies, you do little bits and you don't know where it fits in.

I would advise anybody-a kid-instead of doing pictures, get experience! Do theater! Get theater in his blood!"
