The way I pick movies is, first, if the script is any good. Then, if the script is good, who else is in it, the director, the producer, all that. If you have all that, there's a chance the movie will be great. If the script isn't right, or the director or cast isn't right, you've got no shot in hell.

My father always said, 'The saddest thing in life is wasted talent.'

I had a 90-minute one-man show. I performed it and my life just exploded. Everything - my life just changed. Every writer, director, producer, studio head, movie star - they all wanted it. It was the hottest property since 'Rocky.'

I love people who just started making movies - first-timers, second-timers. They take chances.

I came here knowing nobody. I worked clubs as a singer and even the doors a few times before I landed some TV roles.

Oh, great reviews are the worst. They mislead you more than the bad ones, because they only fuel your ego. Then you only want another one, like potato chips or something, and the best thing you get is fat and bloated. I'd rather just refuse, thanks.

The saddest thing in life is wasted talent, and the choices you make will shape your life forever.
