“In theater, there's a lot of discipline involved in doing eight shows a week for a year and a half. It's nice to be able to bring some of that bag of tools with you over to the film world, where you don't have the rehearsal, you don't have an audience. You don't have a month of rehearsal to examine these words, and you meet the guy who's going to play your brother the morning that you shoot the scene. So you need a bag of tools.” WorldNeedsYearsPlayShowsAbleFilmGuyHalfMorningAudienceNiceWeekBrotherMonthsDisciplineInvolvedSceneToolsTheaterEightBagsRehearsalYour Brother Author:William Sadler

“After months of playing air guitar to 'Free Bird', what really got me into guitar was watching a documentary about Jimi Hendrix and picking up the Woodstock soundtrack.

“There is a core of loneliness. It's partly existential. Secondly, I was raised a loner. My parents were not there. My father was asked to leave because he couldn't metabolize ethanol. Actually, my mother ran away with us when I was 2 months old and my brother was 5. Real dramatic stuff: down the fire escape, through backyards. So, I sort of raised myself. I was alone a lot and I invented myself - I lived through the radio and through my imagination.” RealMotherFatherStuffParentImaginationFireLonelinessBrotherMonthsRaisedRadioCoreRanDramaticMy BrotherExistentialMy ImaginationLonerBackyardsEthanolFire Escapes Author:George Carlin

“When I came to the United States in 1975 I was eleven, and within a few months my voice broke. I recited commercials like a parrot and I got yelled at quite often. My older brother one night said, "You speak so much English when you're not supposed to, that's why your vocal chords shattered. Now you sound like a duck." I thought it was true. I went from this sweet-voiced Vietnamese kid who spoke Vietnamese and French to this craggy-voiced teenager.” SaidStatesKidsNightSpeakSoundVoiceUnitedUnited StatesSweetBrotherMonthsBrokeTeenagerSpokesDucksChordsVocalOne NightElevenShatteredParrotsOlder BrotherVietnamese Author:Andrew Lam
