It doesn't matter what part I play, I try and commit myself 100 percent.
Steve Buscemi
I hope I don't make it sound like it's this big to-do, but even putting on real cufflinks takes work.
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.
Steve Buscemi
I guess I don't think about age too much. I've always felt older than I really am anyway. I'm not dreading getting older. I don't miss the anxiety of being younger and not knowing what you want or where you’re going.
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
Character actors just pile up the credits because you work on a movie for like a few days. It's not like I'm the lead in everything I do - far from it. I'm not spending three or four months on a picture I'm spending three or four weeks. Sometimes three or four days.
Steve Buscemi

Steve Buscemi
I always find that it's when a script is not detailed, then I have to do more work as an actor.
Steve Buscemi
I never did improv professionally, but that was certainly in my training as an actor. I like it.
Steve Buscemi
Casting is everything. Getting the person that you imagined is this character and then seeing what they bring to it.That's why you hire them, so why tell somebody first what it is you want? I'm more curious to see what they bring to it and then be inspired by it and say: OK, what if you tried this? or What would happen if ... ?
Steve Buscemi
Trees Lounge is based on my own life. Both my parents like the movie. My father, of course, thinks it's a masterpiece.
Steve Buscemi
Do you think god stays in heaven because he too lives in fear of what he's created here on earth?
Steve Buscemi
I like telling stories about people with problems. I can't really put it much simpler than that.
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.
