Actor Quote by Jamie Bell
“If I hear 'What was it like working with Steven Spielberg?' one more time, I might jump out of that window. 'Do you miss England?' is really annoying. The third one is 'How did you avoid the pitfalls of being a child actor?' I don't even know what that means. Do child stars hit pitfalls? That's such a stereotypical thing to say. I know lot of actors who have started off as kids and I feel it's really unfair.”
