Moldova.ORG -- Ben Affleck confessed he finds acting torturous, according to UPI.

The “Good Will Hunting” star received excellent reviews for his latest movie “Hollwoodland”, but previously experienced a run of flops and admits he felt worthless.

Ben is quoted the Hollywood Reporter website as saying: "I have a doubt about my own worth, and a lot of times, I experience conflict about what is the social merit of doing this. But for me, acting has been really torturous. It feels like a lot of failure and very little success, and it is hard to divorce it from what is really honest and true. It has only been good when I have been able to put away my own vanity, my own self-consciousness, my own sense of how each piece of behavior that I am engaging in is going to be interpreted by somebody."

Affleck, who has a daughter, Violet, with his wife Jennifer Garner, confessed he chose to star in bad motion pictures, as he wanted to be rich and famous.

"Part of being an actor is the choices you make. Choices that I have made a lot of them poorly! I made my choices for a combination of reasons - wanting to be successful, wanting people to like me, wanting to make money - some of them good”, said Affleck.
