I've had to fight for roles and I've lost a hundred roles, but 'Smoking' and 'Smith' were phone calls. That's the dream.

I want to work with intelligent people and look for scripts that I think are intelligent and surprising.

I don't know anyone who's going to see Grind 22 times in the theater. My mom. Some kid who has short-term memory loss and forgot that he's seen it.

Really, as long as I am working and have diversity, I am happy.

I have a pretty lousy voice.

And in a world without heroes, as the movie trailer voice-over guy might say, the slightly awkward can be slightly cool.

Okay, using the dreaded middle name is not the best way to forge a bond.
