Quotable Quotes - Kevin Costner on "Hatfields & McCoys"

Something to keep in mind when writing any character, "good" or "bad"...


"This character you play isn't the nicest of guys, Kevin."

"What you want to do on screen is be understood,
not necessarily liked."


Watch the full interview here, on Good Morning America:


Happy writing,
Lydia

  1. Ooo! Awesome! I like how the exact same could be said about a page in a book, too. :D (Whew, I recorded this show to my DVR this weekend, so I was a bit hesitant to click on your post for fear it would have tidbits or spoilers, hehehe!)

  3. LOVE it, I often feel that way about my characters. i like to write anti-hero type characters, who are often unlikable. But if you understand their motivations, you understand them as a person. Great share!
