Ben Foster

Ben: I think it's difficult being a young person. I think it's difficult being a human being, but the pressures of being a young adult… Every action is defining the type of man or woman that you will eventually become. And at the same time, to figure out that person, that ideal at your root that you hope to become, you have to test those grounds. Sadly, in these circumstances, (in Alpha Dog) they go too far.

Ben: (on getting the part in the film "Liberty Heights") It was so surreal just to audition for it to begin with. When I got the call I was passed out. I was at my family's house, just taking a break from my apartment, and my mom came and knocked on my door. I said, "Leave me alone!" She said, "No, wake up!" I had drool down my face, I picked up the phone, and my manager said, "You got it!" and I proceeded to do a parade around the house in my underpants for a good couple hours.
