Those eyes!' ... I've heard that my whole life. I'm actually quite blind. I wear contacts.

As an actor, it's a relatively passive job unless you're generating your own content or writing your own content. So to a certain degree you're at the mercy of what is available, what you're reading, what you become passionate about, and ultimately, what people want to hire you for.

I'm gonna keep it in the fridge. You know. Its a food item.
Elijah Wood -
It's fantastic, are you kidding? To sort of be part of this project from the ground up, from the script form, and then for it to kind of do as well as it did in the States in the festivals, and come here; it's fantastic, it's wonderful.
Elijah Wood -
I do think there was an active choice to do something small, as simple as it may sound, just so I didn't have to work on something for 16 months. The idea of two months, nice and contained, just about character, and no time in makeup was a thrill to me.
Elijah Wood -
I loved the story, the comedy and how emotional it becomes. It was also an opportunity to do something different to what I had done before.
Elijah Wood -
You've got major artists releasing albums on their own and eschewing the major system. I think that breeds excitement and creativity.

LOTR' was a landmark experience in my career, ... And it's where I helped to define myself as a human being and as an adult. I went to New Zealand by myself and had my own house and my own car.
Elijah Wood -
So much time is wasted on trying to be better than others.

Getting away from Frodo comes up a lot.
Elijah Wood -
The war is definitely in the background, only referred to in radio news blips and conversation. I think, ultimately, this film is about the choices these guys are faced with. In that way, I think this is a more personal story about their friendship, about the reaction that they have when they're essentially faced with death, to a certain degree.
Elijah Wood -
I watched the Lost series in the US and it's great.
Elijah Wood -
It was kind of unique and great to have two films coming out within a week. It certainly was a different experience for me.

The predominant difference between television and film is the pace to which you work, but the development of the character or the process for playing the character isn't necessarily different.
Elijah Wood -
I don't know that I necessarily feel more comfortable in the context of smaller films, but I tend to feel more comfortable more often than not with the material of smaller films.
Elijah Wood -
I suppose I've been working for a long time, so I've seen all kinds of filmmaking. I can fit into anything, and it doesn't feel that weird or that fascinating.
Elijah Wood -
So, as much as it is about this continuing war, the reinstated draft, and their individual views, it's really sort of a deeply human tale, and a character study as well.
Elijah Wood -
Quite simply it is love. It is the unconditional love that says, regardless of what you do or where you go, I will always be there for you.
Elijah Wood -
I definitely don't look my age, ... So I actively look for roles that will help people change their perception of me.

I had a woman breakdown and cry when she met me which was difficult to deal with because immediately when someone starts to cry, you want to comfort them, you know, "Poor thing." I comforted her. I tried to make her feel better.
Elijah Wood -
I'm always looking for something very different from anything I've done. I'm attracted to a great script, and not necessarily a great character.
Elijah Wood -
I think horror comedies tend to skew more comedy than horror, for the most part.
Elijah Wood -
But everybody there knew 'Lord of the Rings,' ... It's really amazing.
