Willem Dafoe

There's no cutting away. And what's significant about that is... There's a fluidity. You can enter into these scenes much better because you're not constantly thrown out by a change of point of view. You're with these people because the incredibly long takes and when they're done skillfully, of course, you don't feel the camera movement, but you're with the people.

And for actors, it's very interesting because they're difficult to do because not only do you have to execute the actions and the intentions of your character, but you have all these technical things to think about. And when you're played as full as an actor, you can't fall out. You can only give yourself to action, and it's like an athlete, you know, running from here to there.

Yeah, when there's opportunity. I don't do movies just to do, but I do... I do think actors need practice, and I do like that. I love being on a set, so I do like to work. I like the adventure of going away someplace, leaving my world behind, my life behind for a little while and making a new one, and then coming back to my life.

And when we say seven, you know, it seems like a lot, like I was talking to my colleague, Nick Holt, who is in Nosferatu. And it seems like every week there's a new Nick Holt film. And I tease him. I say, wow, do you ever sleep? And he says, no, I was, you know, I've been home for whatever, you know, I've been home for six months. Movies get held sometimes to position them for release.

And it can seem like more than it is. I get some downtime. You know, I'm not on one set Tuesday and then starting a new one on Thursday. There are little breaks.

You said it. I mean, you know, theaters are closing. People are getting out of the habit of going to theaters regularly. And, you know, you don't want to be an old crank and say times were better back then. But I lament that experience of where strangers go into a dark room, watch light on the screen together, and have an experience. Streaming does some great things.
