And, yeah, I mean, I remember thinking, oh, well, this is not a job I'm going to do when I'm a grown-up because this seems like a very silly job.

I just learn lines and then I say them.

And somebody usually says to me, the first direction somebody tells me is usually act natural.

Or maybe they'll say something like be excited on that line.

And that part of it had held no sway for me.

I had no interest in that.

The part that was interesting to me was being on set with these families of mostly guys.

They really were all these brothers and fathers who –

would teach me things, and they'd talk about how the camera worked.

And, you know, we would all be freezing together or complaining about the food together.

And there was this community of people that I belonged to.

And because I love movies and love television, that was such a big part of my life, I was a part of something.
