“It made me feel like I belonged,” Brendan continued. “We’re actors, we all want to belong to a tribe and that’s where I found my tribe.”
“I never would have believed I would have been offered the role of my life,” Brendan said, noting how like his character in The Whale, he’s also been on a “raft of regrets” but also found himself “in a sea of hope.”
“I’ve been at that sea and I’ve rode that wave lately it’s been powerful and good,” Brendan added. “And I’ve also had that wave smash me right down to the ocean floor and drag my face along there and wind up on some strange beach in a different world and wonder where am I now.”

Hollywood Reporter survey found that a majority would like to go back and change their 1977 votes for “Rocky” to “All the President’s Men.” And looking back at 1999, if they had to do it all over again, they’d give the gold to war epic “Saving Private Ryan” instead of the largely-forgotten “Shakespeare in Love.” But there have been a lot more recipients of Hollywood’s highest honor that have fallen out of favor — and sometimes in epic fashion.
