I don't believe you can get into somebody's character but more that somebody comes in you. You just use yourself. In everything I play, I feel like it is me. I just say different things on different times and look different.
Playing evil is just not interesting. I don't think anyone who does evil stuff thinks they're doing evil stuff. That's the scary part.
I think it's cool people love to hate me.
I knew always that Holland gave away the most Jews of all the countries. We are not the heroes that are in the history books.
In theater, the scenes I like the most are the ones where you are there and you cannot talk.
