Unusual Suspect.TALK Asia interview the acclaimed stage and screen actor Kevin Spacey.Kevin, welcome to Talk Asia.Great to have you on the show today.Thanks.The world does know you for your movie roles,and you just sort of burst onto the scene, really, with Usual Suspects,and you got a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for it.Just take me back to that timewhere you went from sort of relatively unknown actor to suddenly ridiculously famous.It was a very gradual transition for me.It may not have felt that way if you were on the outside,but on the inside of it I had been working very successfully as a theater actor for a long timeand had made a name for myself in New York theater.Then I started to work in television and began to make a name for myself in television.Now, what I mean by that is that people started to recognize me.What happened after Usual uspects and a number of other films I did,sort of that all came out in a span of about six months,was that I think suddenly people started to connect the dots.Oh, that was that guy from...Oh, he was in that...Oh...And then people start to actually learn your name.But winning a best supporting actor must have been, you know, a great time,but I imagine that winning a Best Actor Oscar would have been amazing.And you did that for American Beauty where you played a depressed suburban dad and husband.
