Actor and living legend Nicolas Cage took to Reddit and let fans ask him anything regarding his career, his life, and everything in between - and they did not hold back.
Thousands flocked to the subreddit r/movies to ask the icon questions that ranged from favorite movies to favorite pastas, and he answered as many as he could. Here are just of a few of the highlights from that AMA, which cemented Cage (AKA u/lionsgate) as a prince among men.
Again, Pig is my favorite performance of mine, and I think that movie, along with Scorsese’s Bringing Out the Dead are arguably my two best movies as a whole.
Thank you. I was interested in returning to a more quiet, naturalistic style of film performance, having done a series of more operatic performance styles.
The movie feels rather like a folk song to me or a poem, and the character of Rob was contending with tremendous grief and self-imposed isolation, and I think we as a group of people experiencing a pandemic in 2020-21 [were] probably also having similar feelings of loss and isolation, and it communicated to a nerve we were all experiencing.
It's one of my favorite movies, and it's probably my best work.
