I don’t know whether that’s because they don’t think I need direction — which of course is not true, actors always need direction — but I think either they don’t have the experience to know that they can be very helpful or they’re hoping you can just get along without them.
I was never a big yakker, but at the same time, I feel like directors don’t direct you as much as they used to.
The young directors now, it’s harder for them to get the experience they need with actors sometimes.
I think there are fewer conversations [between actors and directors] now.
