Steve Buscemi

Steve Buscemi

Steve Buscemi
I don't blame any director for wanting to do something more commercial. That's all part of the business. I certainly have done it, as an actor.
Steve Buscemi

Steve Buscemi
I suppose things are better now, but ... I don't know. People still hate each other, they just know how to hide it better.
Steve Buscemi
It doesn't matter what part I play, I try and commit myself 100 percent.
Steve Buscemi
I don't tend to think of the characters i play as losers. I like the struggles that people have, people who are feeling like they don't fit into society, because I still sort of feel that way.
Steve Buscemi
I have a dresser, who literally is a guy who makes sure the tie is right. It's a little bit of a process. I could probably do it by myself, but it would take me three times as long.
