I had a kind of meandering little career, and then I was given a chance to play one of the bottom six in The Dirty Dozen.

When the camera starts to roll, there is something of death about it.

Well, I was always cast as an artistic homicidal maniac. But at least I was artistic!

The only thing I feel passionate about is my wife.

To them though, not to us, we were just a catalyst for their imagination.

I am so glad my wife tolerates me. And we have three wonderful sons.

When I do a film, the days before or the night before, I throw up. Sometimes it's just in my mouth and I swallow it back, but sometimes it's real. Whatever it is, it's hard. I don't do the first five or ten minutes of my character's appearance in a movie until the middle of the shooting schedule because I don't want him to be defined by my nervousness. So, we do the middle of the picture first.
