My goal as an actor has always been to reach a level where I can find a lot of interesting work, and I think I'm at that point now. The Oscar has given me a lot of recognition.

To me the thing with 'Grease' was that it was the first movie that as a kid I wanted to get up and do what they were doing.

I won and I get to scream and jump a little. But I got to go back to work tomorrow.

Before I was ever in high school, I had dark circles under my eyes.

I'm not saying I'm a writer, but I've been in movies for a long time, and I think I could write a script for a movie.

Am I getting better at making choices? Well, I think I might be getting better at reading scripts.

Villains used to always die in the end. Even the monsters. Frankenstein, Dracula - you'd kill them with a stake. Now the nightmare guy comes back.
