When I was 19, I thought [Brokeback Mountain] was going to be the best movie ever made. And everyone was going to see it and it was just going to be incredible. And then nobody saw it and it didn't get bought at Sundance. And it was a really great experience. Humbling. And then it's since found its way.

There are standards. I like to be prepared, I guess I should say - that type of pressure of, All right, now you go with abandon, you know. Now when you're in it, you let go of all the things - that's what happens when you're onstage.
