I never thought about that ever throughout the entire course of my career about choosing a specific role because it would make me seem more man-like.
Edward ZwickThere is a segment of the American population that has been excluded from the national myth, and that should be redressed.
Edward ZwickI think it's too easy often to find a villain out of the headlines and to then repeat that villainy again and again and again. You know, traditionally, America has always looked to scapegoat someone as the boogie man.
Edward ZwickTo me this movie is about what is valuable. To one person it might be a stone; to someone else, a story in a magazine; to another, it is a child. The juxtaposition of one man obsessed with finding a valuable diamond with another man risking his life to find his son is the beating heart of this film.
