Thanks for posting! I am done watching these videos. I can now repeat word for word Mickeys answers because give or take a phrase its the same. I do admire actors and him though. It must get boring these interviews. You have to repeat yourself so you dont come off as fake etc. You need to think of what your manager agent etc may say about your answers. You have an image to create. I wonder if your paid to promote or are press junkets are expected.
