Some movies I see today have the most dramatic plot points but the actors are not playing them dramatically.

I'm sort of fascinated by the whole espionage crime thing.

The F.B.I. is about nuts and bolts. It's all about witnesses and procedure and walking the streets.

Funerals are important rituals. They don't just recognize that a life has ended; they recognize that a life was lived.

I think every actor wants to be an FBI or cop at one point.

I love the fight game. I like the brutality. I like the mentality. I like the aggressiveness, but I like the technique and skill. I like the stakes. I like the people around in the gym. I like the everyday, working class feel of a boxing gym.

Actors aren't fighters. They don't know how to throw a punch. So, there's a lot of hitting in the face. I'd much rather fight with a stuntman than another actor. I don't like fighting with other actors because somebody always ends up getting hurt.
