I'm not Jack Nicholson. I'm not Brando. But I do mumble.

To be honest with you, I'd rather not be working. When you work, there are all sorts of deadlines and pressures. I like to do one thing and take my time to do the other one.

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.

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

Some roles have been with me forever

You deal with failure - strike, strike, strike - all the time. Acting is like that. You have to have a very thick skin in a way - your hair is too dark, you're too ugly for the part, your audition wasn't good.
