Jeff Bridges Quote
-
(on working with Kevin Spacey on K-PAX and their similarities in working) I`ve been a big fan of his work -- The Usual Suspects, American Beauty, L.A. Confidential. He`s a really good actor and he turns out to be a wonderful guy as well. We approach acting in the same way in that we both enjoy the process. We both like rehearsals and we understand the value of them. There are some actors who don`t like to engage with other actors; they just like to relate to each other between `Action!` and `Cut!` But I`ve always felt that getting to know the people you`re working with can inform and enrich the work. The closer you get, even if you`re playing opposites, the better the work. Some actors are afraid of leaving it all off-camera or getting the characters confused, but I don`t see it that way. I often feel that the actual movie is like the skin sloughed off the snake; it`s the by-product of the real valuable stuff, which is the real-life experience of doing it.
