Nicolas Cage talks about his childhood fears

5

Los Angeles, May 5 (IANS) Hollywood star Nicolas Cage, who stars in the new psychological thriller film ‘The Surfer’, revealed how the movie relates to his own childhood in California.

Recalling spending weekends at Santa Monica Pier in California, Cage told ‘Extra’: “I was quite young, but I knew that I wasn’t going to be able to get past the group that was surfing, or, you know, the line, if you will. It was quite intimidating.

“I had a lot of admiration for surfers and for what they do, but I also feared them as a young man because they were pretty jacked up, both mentally and physically.”

In the upcoming movie, Cage played a man who revisits his childhood beach to surf with his son. The actor’s character is pushed to his limits amid an escalating conflict at the beach, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Cage shared: “It’s a human condition, it’s a human story to think that you can repair things if you just work hard enough and buy back that house or it’ll fix my marriage or it’ll repair my relationship with my son … and that desire to belong, to belong to something, to belong to anything.”

Meanwhile, the 61-year-old star had previously stated to have a student-like approach to acting.

Cage has achieved huge success during his time in the film business. However, he acknowledged that he’s still developing his skills.

The Academy Award and a Golden Globe winner told ‘Entertainment Tonight’ in 2023: “I certainly can’t think in those terms like I’ve done it all. I’ve always had the mantra that I’m a student. I’ve viewed my path and film-making as a student. I would never call myself a master.”

Cage also revealed that he’s always had an inquisitive mind.

He said: “I always have something to learn, always want to learn. So, 60 is coming up for sure, so my goal is to read more. I’ve been lagging in that department. I’d like to read a book a week.”
