So true. It is such a difficult life. To do this beautiful life-thing, acting, yet have to put up with the other part of it. He's had a number of years now to settle into some emotional balance about it all, I should think. But the public-media part of his art and craft must get just so tiresome. Though he hasn't had reason to scorn the media yet, it seems, and is not a hermit. But how long can it last? Maybe he'll get to be so respected as he gets older that people might leave him alone, while the new young next things come into the picture and take their attention away.

Very well said, kathy. He is certainly not a hermit, but I love the way he goes back and forth between his private life and public life. He keeps things quiet when very personal things are concerned. That's class.
