Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about David’s personal background?
Hostess: If you’re going to create a TV show that deals week after week with things that areunbelievable, you need an actor who can play a believer, you know, a person who tends to believe everything. Tonight, in our show, we have David Duchovny: who is stared in the popular TV series The X-Files. Thanks to his brilliant performance in the TV series, David has become one of the best-known figures in the country.
H: Good evening, David. I’m so glad to have you here.
D: It’s my pleasure. Thanks for inviting me on the show.
H: David, have you often been on the radio shows?
D: Oh yes, quite often. To be frank, I love to be on the show.
H: Why?
D: You know, I want to know what people think about the TV series and about me, my acting, etc.
H: Ok, David, let’s first talk about the character you played in The X-Files. The character, whose name is Mulder, is supposed to be a believer. He deals with those unbelievable, weird, often bizarre things and events. He must be, I mean, Mulder, someone who really believes in the things he meets in order to keep on probing into those mysteries.
D: That’s true. Remember those words said by Mulder? "What is so hard to believe? Whose intensity makes even the most skeptical viewer believe the paranormal and outrageous government conspiracies, with every reason to believe that life in the persistent survey is driving us out of our terrestrial field, etc. etc?"
H: Fabulous. I guess, David, your contribution to the hit series is credibility. Now, let’s talk about your personal experience. From what I have read, I know that starting from your hildhood, you’re always a smart boy — went to the best private schools, accepted to most of the IVY colleges, not bad for a low-or middle-class kid from a broken family on New York’s low eastside. So much to my surprise, when you, who were on your way to a doctor to Yale to fulfill acting classes and get beaten by the buck...
D: You bet, my mother was really surprised when I decided to give up all that in order to become an actor.
H: Sure, but talking about Mulder, the believer in The X-Files, what about you, David? Do you believe it all in real life, the aliens, people from outer space, you know, UFOs, government conspiracies, all the things that the TV series deal with?
D: Well, government conspiracies are, I think, a little far-fetched because, I mean, it’s very hard for me to keep a secret with a friend of mine. And you’re going to tell me the entire government is going to come together and hide the aliens from us? I found that hard to believe. In terms of aliens, I think that the arts are, there must be...
H: But you could believe in aliens?
D: Oh yeah.
H: The character you played in The X-Files, Fox Mulder is so dark and moody. Are you dark and moody in life?
D: I think so. I think what they wanted was somebody who could be this hearted, driven person, but not behave in that way. And therefore be hearted and driven, but also appear to be normal and not crazy at the same time. And I think that I could, I can, I cannot for that.
H: What haunts you now? What drives you now?
D: What drives me is failure and success and all those things, so...
H: Where are you now? Are you haunted and driven? Failed or successful? Which?
D: Yeah, both.
H: All of the above?
D: I always feel like a failure.
H: Do you mean now you feel like a failure?
D: Yeah, I mean sometimes, you know, like, I come back to New York, so it’s like, everything is different, so I lie in bed and think — two years ago, three years ago, very different; maybe I’m doing well — but then I think, you know, there’re just so many of other things that I want to do and...
H: Your father and mother divorced when you were 11. Does that have effect on your life today that you recognize?
D: Well, yeah. I think that the only way to think of it is that, you know, people are saying your wound is your gold. You know, wherever you hurt, that’s where you become stronger. So that’s what it’s really about.
H: Ok. it’s time for a short break. We’ll be back in a minute, David Duchovny in The X-Files. Don’t go away.
