Use the difficulty of flopped movies. The thing is, when you make a flop movie, it means you made a bad choice.  Then you make another one, it’s another bad choice.  Then there’s the other actor, who sits there and says, “Oh, I’m very good.  I wouldn’t have done that movie.  I wouldn’t have done that movie.  I wouldn’t have done that movie.” And then I get the movie that’s a big success for me.  And he gets a movie which could be a big success for him.  But he hasn’t worked for two years. I haven’t stopped working.  I was making crap films, but I was working, and I go straight into the great film absolutely ready to work.  And he’s practically crapping himself, because he hasn’t worked for two years.

I use the difficulty of making flop movies, they keep you working, keep you experiencing, keep you going.  So to bring that back to sort of someone, to a young person, you say, “You must keep going.  Just don’t sit there waiting for the big thing to come.  Keep going.”  You know, if it’s an actor, you do a small part just to keep going.  Don’t make great spaces in your life, where you don’t do what you do.
