Hawke then added, to laughs: “It was kind of like how one hears about the joys of doing drugs. You just want to do it again. It’s such a wonderful feeling because you don’t feel alone.” The creative continued: “There’s a strange double-edged sword to being an actor, which is that on the outside, you get celebrated in success, but the true joys of performing are in disappearing…you feel yourself disappear and become part of this dream. And that’s the feeling that’s so wonderful. And you see the dream live in other people, and that’s where the high comes from. And no sooner did I leave Venice at 18 years old that I just wanted to do it again. And as I look out at you, I’m so grateful to be here with you and to get to be a part of this still.” The crowd reacted with a big round of applause.
