I was watching a video on Willem Dafoe on his iconic roles, and his passion to craft and life, and positivity, exudes from him immensely. In that video, I am surprised he remembers from which of his movies the lines came from. It made me love him more as an actor because he loves life and his job.

But then during the interview, I remembered too when I watched Kevin Spacey’s interview before, admiring him and it turned out he is a creep. I was telling to myself about Willem Dafoe “please don’t be a creep, please don’t be a creep.”

Willem seems like a genuinely nice guy though but I hope I don’t get proven wrong!

Edit: clarified the title

    I used to like Neil but then I saw him give a talk in person at a local college. There was some girl that asked a silly question during the q and a part of the visit and in front of an audience of hundreds of people Neil laid into her about how her question was stupid and she was wasting everyone’s time. He did that until she started crying and left. After the next person asked a question as Neil was wrapping up his answer he decided to get another jab at the girl he already chased off by saying “and that’s a real question”. It’s hard to convey how clearly the cruelty and contempt hung in that room.
