Liev Schreiber
I'm a typically lazy person. It is sort of characteristic of actors.
Liev Schreiber
Flaws reveal a lot about a character and who people are. The flawed elements of a character are where I find their humanity. Those are the things I tend to identify with - the weaknesses. I don't know why, but I identify with struggle more than with success.
Liev Schreiber
