Had to think of the scene in The Disaster Artist too
Her answer really sums up my thoughts about acting. I have to say even if someone asked me to be in a horrible ultra low-budget C-Movie, which would look terrible already on paper, I would do it. I would try to take a Nicolas Cage approach to it and would just try to enjoy myself as much as possible. I just love movies too much to be able to pass up an opportunity like this. What's the worst that could happen? It may turn out that I have zero talent and no-one would ever cast me in anything else. So what? It wouldn't be the end of the world.
I wouldn't mind that at all. Chances are the movie would either be so insignificant that very few people would bother to watch it all or it would turn into a "so bad it's good" type of cult movie. I see so many bad actors around and so many creative people who have zero talent, yet most of them don't seem to be ashamed of it at all. They just keep pretending they're are artists.
Besides I've had so many failures in life and have been made fun of so often that I arrived at a point where I couldn't really give a damn what other peole think of me. I would've killed myself long ago would I take these things seriously.
