What John Sayles looks for in actors

2058788735_23da44e207.jpgA succinct answer to the question, "What do you look for in an actor?" from honoree John Sayles, at a press conference during his 16-film retrospective and tributes at the Thessaloniki International Film Festival in the north of Greece. The festival's uncommonly democratic in access, with the pressers held in a large warehouse on the pier where many events take place, along with four cinemas, the John Cassavetes among them, and that's the reason for the hullabaloo in the background: on the second floor, the Boutari and Fischer are flowing.[More Thessaloniki pictures here.]
