The Oscar seems to have been confused with the Nobel Peace Prize.
I have scars from every film I have made. There is nothing to protect actors. They treat you worse than a dog. You work like a slave, and you know, I like it. That is the way it should be. Every film should be like your last.
What you have to understand is that my thing is not glamour. I love stretch marks and C-section scars and all of that. I'm a grown man. You don't gotta put on no makeup with me.
Scars are souvenirs you never loseThe past is never far Did you lose yourself somewhere out thereDid you get to be a star And don't it make you sad to know that lifeIs more than who we are.
Scars are souvenirs you never lose the past is never far. Did you lose yourself somewhere out there? Did you get to be a star? And don't it make you sad to know that life Is more than who we are.
At the Oscars, if you didnt vote for 12 Years a Slave' you were a racist.
I went from everyone saying, "She-can't-act-she-can't-act-she-can't-act," to an Oscar nomination. So there was something quite sublime about that!
The Oscar changed everything. Better salary, working with better people, better projects, more exposure, less privacy.
My favorite work is The Full Monty because I got an Oscar for it. But it was really hard work at the time. Sometimes comedy is not a bundle of laughs to actually do.
We call them cool, those hearts that have no scars to show. The one's who never do let go. And risk the tables being turned.
