Adam Driver : My journey from Marine to actor


Adam Driver at TED 2016
My journey from Marine to actor (transcript)
Summary
I was sorry that I didn't recognize the speaker, Adam Douglas Driver,  who is an American actor who fought in the galactic battles of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. That time, he visited Japan to introduce the movie and he was appearing in the movie: Silence.
However, he had given up to be an actor. After September 11, 2001, he joined 1/1 weapons company as a Marine because he is filled with a sense of patriotism and retribution.
However, he couldn't go to deploy to Iraq because he broke his leg. He tells us that the transition from military to civilian was complex. As being Marine, there was a respectful rank.
There are no any useless things that happen to you It is inevitable and it makes you.
Your ranks were not important. Giving ultimate service is the most important thing.
He works as an actor and he established a nonprofit: Arts in the Armed Forces (AITAF) that performs theater for all branches of the military in the United States and abroad.

A reading of "I am not Batman"
Impression
I think that people who live abroad love Batman because no one talks about Batman in Japan.
Everyone seems to want to be Batman though, of course, it' not easy or everyone wants to help them from him because their life is not easy to live. Its moment, stories over the numbers that people live in there will be created.
Created stories are not your life. You know it though you can't start your life if you don't have stories. You can create your life like Batman stories. People can be hero always in their lives.

Words in this story
