In this episode, I’m doing something a little different. I’ve gathered up a handful of stories from various actors, spanning different movies, eras, and experiences. Some are well-known. Some might be new to you.I’ll share these stories as I know them, talk through what stands out to me about each one, and offer a few thoughts along the way.
