‘Constitutional’ is just a real pip of a word. Positively rolls off the tongue. In fact, it’s downright fun to say. ‘Con-stit-too-shun-al.’ It’s the verbal equivalent of skipping down the street with an ice cream cone in your hand. It’s like a semantic bag of Lays potato chips. You simply can’t just say it once.

Everyone takes pause at 40. It’s the age you have to assess everything in your life. It’s the fictitious marker that’s always coming up when you’re young. The world really does look at you to kind of have it together by 40, and be successful by 40. Whatever success means.

Film, television, and working with a camera is such an intimate art form that if a camera is right on you, and I’ve got your face filling the screen, you have to be real. If you do anything that is fake, you’re not going to get away with it, because the camera is right there, and the story is being told in a very real way.
