Gosling disliked face tattoos in 'The Place...'

Los Angeles, April 13 (IANS) Actor Ryan Gosling says he hated the tattoos that he has sported in upcoming movie "The Place Beyond The Pines".

The 32-year-old plays Luke Glanton, who resorts to crime in order to have money to raise his child.

His character has a lot of tattoos, which he did not like and even complained about it to director Derek Cianfrance.

"We wanted to make the tattoos look a mess, from someone who lived a life of not thinking things through and making bad decisions. When I went for the tattoo, I thought, this is stupid, this is dumb, I can't do this," metro.in quoted Gosling as saying.

"And Derek was like 'Well, that's how most people feel about their face tattoos'. I didn't even want to look at myself in the mirror. I felt like I knew what he (the character) was like. When I was holding Tony Pizza, the kid who plays our child, I just felt ashamed this person I created was his father," he added.
