(the way he sounds in interviews? we sound nothing alike. and I'm not a fan in a "wow, there's such kinship" sense.

but speaking English, I NEED more energy to think of the words, I'm not as quick or nuanced. and in the same way, I think he (as an actor) needs energy to remember the script and the staging etc. - so when I saw his delivery in #AsTheWorldTurns I thought "Okay, I can think, emote and phrase in that speed and feel good/authentic about it."

...and I just did that ever since. 😅 )
