That's a big thing in my life: going with your gut. If something isn't lighting the fire and making you excited, or if something feels wrong or doesn't agree with you, it should be questioned. It should be talked about.

Occasionally, as an actor, you're not... Sometimes, at least for me, I'm not fully in the groove until the second or third take, in which I would not want to just stop. If it's a scene that takes a lot of work and time, sometimes the scene gets better with time, and sometimes it gets exhausted. I think it just depends on the scene.

To a certain extent, I think I've tried to train myself to not dive too deep into things or get my hopes too way up, because the fear of disappointment and whatnot is only natural.
