There’s a little bit of a lure there.

As a human being, I do know what’s actually vital to me in life and it’s not what’s occurred within the final six months. So understanding that, it simply frees me as much as truly simply get pleasure from that. It’s my first time doing all this, and I’ve been working as an actor for 25 years, so I’m simply making an attempt to get pleasure from all of it.
