As an actor there are no drawbacks.
John Malkovich
I don't have a saviour or a royal family.

John Malkovich
I was a very good baseball player and football player as a kid, but my father always told me - occasionally while striking me - that I was much more interested in how I looked playing baseball or football than in actually playing. And I think there's great truth in that.
John Malkovich
Of course it's trivial, but then most things are.
John Malkovich
Much of what you do as an actor - it's who's around you, what's the environment, where do you fit into this thing. That's really work that's impossible to do on your own, at least for me. I find it hard to pre-plan every element of everything I do. It's not my thing.
John Malkovich
I'm a little bit of a fabric lunatic.
John Malkovich
I don't think my parents know what I do.
