Dont go home for Thanksgiving or Christmas.

Then inthis interview on RogerEbert.com, he doubled down.
This countrys filled with ignorant jackasses, he said.
you could call it the United States of Moronic Fing Aholes.
Who really cares what I think or what I say anyway?
I have absolutely no influence or power whatsoever.
Im not saying it makes me feel better, but why not?
And Im like, No, youre wrong.
Just look at the news.
The actors performance inNocturnal Animals(in theaters Nov. 18) is already tipped for an Oscar nomination.
And despite the Trump victory, Shannon hasnt lost his deadpan sense of humor or his impeccable timing.
I always find it interesting when people ask, Do you think youve found the character?
he explained in answer to a question about the acting process.
How can I answer that?
Im not even sure if Ive found myself, much less an imaginary character.
I dont think Ive found much of anything.
Except a lot of money!
