John Hawkes is amazing. I really want to meet that man; he’s so good. Him and Ben Foster, and I’m a big fan of Nick Stahl – those are my three guys. – Rory Culkin
If I’m reading a script, and I’m not buying it, I need to be able to relate to the character on some level, and they need to have more than one dimension. I need to have an idea of what this guy’s thinking about when he’s taking a shower not on camera. And if I can’t picture him taking a shower and getting dressed, then he’s not a real person. – Rory Culkin
People who work with me think I should cut my hair. They say casting directors are less likely to hire me with long hair – that they don’t have imaginations and can’t picture me looking normal. People literally have conference calls about my head when I’m not around. I mean, obviously I would cut my hair for an amazing part. – Rory Culkin

I did this movie called ‘Lymelife’ when I was 18, and you know, it was the first time I was working as an adult, a legal adult, and that was a huge growing experience for me. – Rory Culkin
I only work once or twice a year for about a month, so I have a lot of free time. But I’m good at being alone, which helps. – Rory Culkin
