Tilda Swinton Thinks Acting Is Boring

Tilda Swinton Thinks Acting Is Boring
Oscar-winning actress Tilda Swinton is so totally over her job:

"I'm not really interested in acting. I've given up waiting for an epiphany of interest to strike. Acting is a red herring and a major mistake and I'm still trying to get back on track. Every time I'm in a film I'm determined it's the last I'm in then I'll fall into a conversation with someone and we'll cook up a new scheme. Basically it's gone on for 20 years but I'm hoping to pull it to a close shortly."
