That's What David Caruso Said To Me.

I Feel Like My Public Life Isn't Necessarily My Own. I'm Starting To Get Used To How To Maneuver And Operate In New York In A Way That I Don't Get Stopped All The Time. I Just Pretty Much Say "thank You." But One Of The Things Is To Try To Keep Moving. Not To Stop Too Long, Because People Try To Get Into A Conversation With You All The Time. The Hardest Thing Is On The Subway, Or When People Try To Chase You Down.

That's What David Caruso Said To Me. We Were Talking About The Whole Emmy Thing, And He Said That One Of The Things About Awards In This Town Is That A Lot Is About The Drama - Like The Drama Of The Performance. And He Said "your Show, The Wire, Looks So Real, It Almost Looks Like A Documentary. And People Who Aren't Artists - A Lot Of People Who Vote For This Stuff - Don't Get It."

Because Of The Way Tech Is Changing, And Becoming Cheaper And User-friendly, It's Becoming Easier To Make Films Cheaply, Maintaining Quality.

From The Time I Became An Actor My Whole Approach Was To Try To Do As Many Different Things As Possible. It Never Occurred To Me That I Might Be Typecast.

Nothing Will Ever Top 'the Wire.' It Was Historical. It Was Black Cinema.
