The incredibly prolific actor Sam Rockwell sat down with Sam Jones of Off Camera to talk about the seriousness of acting, his changed approach to his craft and the difficulty of playing childlike characters like his role Jason Dixon in Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. Rockwell won an Academy Award for his sublime portrayal of Dixon.
