Ruggles of Red Gap Was born on the exact same date as fellow actor Christian Slater August 18, There is a fictional character in The Honeymooners named Edward Norton. It's a longstanding compulsion I've had since I was about five or six years old. I can literally identify the moment it struck me. I was completely shell-shocked by the magic of this little community-theater play; it just riveted me.
I don't smoke and I don't want to smoke. I am not a fan of gratuitous smoking in films. Life, like poker has an element of risk. It shouldn't be avoided. It should be faced. If I ever have to stop taking the subway, I'm gonna have a heart attack.
Fame is very corrosive and you have to guard very strictly against it. I've never felt any particular encroachment of the 'celebrity' stuff into my life. I'm an actor and, each time out, I'm trying to convince the audience that I'm this character. Every little thing that people know about you as a person impedes your ability to achieve that kind of terrific suspension of disbelief that happens when an audience goes with an actor and character [he's] playing.
The more you can create that magic bubble, that suspension of disbelief, for a while, the better. It's a nice position to be in; I'm lucky. At the same time, all the excitement of that has been put into stark perspective In some ways, the highs of it have been blunted, which in a way, is a gift. First of all, you never make all things for all people and can't always pander to the broadest denominator. I keep an eye toward doing the themes that interest me. Do they move me?
Interest me? Make me think? When I run across something that is provocative in an unsettling way, it appeals to me. People wrestle sometimes making movies, and I think that conflict is a very essential thing. I think a lot of very happy productions have produced a lot of very banal movies. I'm not interested in making movies for everybody. I like making movies for myself and my friends and people with my sensibility.
I always felt that acting was an escape, like having the secret key to every door and permission to go into any realm and soak it up. I enjoy that free pass. Nobody makes me uncomfortable here. It's a place where you can be eternally anonymous. In fact, the United States today keeps on making the same sort of mistakes.
