It's a very serious endeavor for me [to play in the same movie with my son]. It's not for a lot of people. It was a wonderful job. I've wanted to do it since I can remember.

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.

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

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

When you look in the eyes of someone and that's what you look into, I knew him with my blood. It's not something you can actually ever get to, I don't think, without that. It was a huge gift, as an actor.

Vietnam was a lie but at least there was a political agenda. It was the domino theory. Iraq is about nothing but George Bush's ego laced with imperialist ambitions. And it was helped by your government.

I have been able to play a lot of guys and they have kept me working.
