When you think about it, we actors are kind of prostitutes. We get paid to feign attraction and love. Other people are paying to watch us kissing someone, touching someone, doing things people in a normal monogamous relationship would never do with anyone who's not their partner. It's really kind of gross.
'The Story of Us' is about running into someone I had been in a relationship with at an awards show, and we were seated a few seats away from each other.
