I got involved with an acting school and studied for a couple years. They used to have improv exercises that you would work on and you would do improvs.

No one really has the power, and everybody's trying to get through the day, and everybody's nervous and desperate.

I think when Sarah Palin opened her mouth and started talking, the more she talked, the less appealing she became.

When I was growing up in Baltimore, the Colts were not just a team that played in the city. It was part of the city. Football players didn't make close to the money they make today and most took jobs in the off-season. Some were mechanics, others worked at furniture stores, and you could find them drinking at a neighborhood watering hole.

It's always hard to explain why an audience ultimately responds to a movie.

I don't see Sarah Palin suddenly spilling over to a wider group where suddenly they go, "Wait a minute, I've heard her message, and now I'm beginning..." It's not expanding it. A politician that doesn't expand from the base is not a good politician. So I disagree with all the talking heads that go "Well, she's a very good politician." She's not! Good politicians expand, and she doesn't.

The interesting thing about movies, it's not always - y'know, you have to have structure etc and all those things, but an audience responds, in many ways, we walk away and certain things stay in our heads that are memorable.
