When I was younger, it was so much easier. All I needed to do was just get a job. It was like, 'Oh, my God, I have a job! I can call myself a working actor.' But then, the older you get, you have to be more selective, and that's tough.

My first job was in a movie theater. I worked at Cinema 6 in New City, New York. I was an usher. I sold popcorn.

My job as an actor is to just tell the story as best I can from my character's point of view and let the audience decide.

Just to get a job is always really exciting to me. I do feel there's a lot left for me to learn about movies, the subtleties of acting.

Like the early days of the Internet, the dawn of personal genomics promises benefits and pitfalls that no one can foresee.

This must be such a relief for the TV executives managing a business in decline, suffering from a thousand cuts from social media and other new platforms. Trump arrived on the scene as a kind of manna from hell.

I still really love the Internet.

In my fairly disorganized life, yellow stickies are too easily lost, and as for software, I try to avoid using my computer as much more than a typewriter and a post office. I rely on my lifelong habit of daydreaming to spin my stories.
