Summary

For a high school AND college dropout Willem Dafoe has done alright. Actually for anyone Willem Dafoe has done more than alright. He is without a doubt one of our finest actors as evidenced by one of the most eclectic and impressive resumes that continues to grow year after year. Add his latest, "The Florida Project", to that lofty list and perhaps add another Oscar nomination (he's already got two under his belt). This week Willem joins Josh for a career spanning chat, from his beginnings in Wisconsin, to his formative experimental theater days in New York, to working with the likes of Lars Von Trier and Oliver Stone. Dafoe talks the talk and walks the walk of an actor who takes his craft seriously. Plus, you'll learn why he's one of the few actors who has actively shunned television for a life devoted to film and theater. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
