The Only Thing In This

Actors Are Always Outsiders. It's Necessary To Be Able To Interpret - And That Gets Distorted When You Become Famous.

A Lot Of Actors Choose Parts By The Scripts, But I Don't Trust Reading The Scripts That Much. I Try To Get Some Friends Together And Read A Script Aloud. Sometimes I Read Scripts And Record Them And Play Them Back To See If There's A Movie. It's Very Evocative; It's Like A First Cut Because You Hear 'she Walked To The Door,' And You Visualize All These Things. 'she Opens The Door' . . . Because You Read The Stage Directions, Too.

I'm Much More A European Italian Than I Am An American Italian, And I've Always Felt That That Style Of Acting Comedy Is In Me. I Put Comedy As Much As I Can Into All My Movies, If I Can Help It.
