if I hadn't gone to a private Christian school, I'd never have built up enough animosity to want to have started a band.

Before I even went to film school, I learned about movies by being in a British feature film, where everything was shot master shot, mid-shot, close-up. But I reject the idea of a master shot. You don't shoot everything mechanically; you find imaginative ways that serve the action.

If I'm hip, we've got a problem in this country. I really shouldn't be held up as any model of hipness.

I'm trying to do as much as possible to get myself out there and hopefully it will work out.

Local news analysis. . . . The steady stoicism of my parents. . . . Candlelit vigils. . . . And finally, my glorious resurrection.

I first started acting in primary school, just doing little plays. And from the moment I began, something just went 'click' inside me. Suddenly I wasn't shy anymore.
