I think the benefit of being a writer is that I'm looking for the subtext on the page, because all good writing has subtext. And as a writer, you look at the big scope of things, the big story, rather than just your individual story line, because I think it's important to know what you're in and how you fit into it.

Sometimes you even start to sound like the character because you're living and breathing them every day on the set. It gets into your bones.

I think, as a writer, you see the big picture, and as an actor, you're thinking of all the minutiae, all the very small details.
