I love to tell stories and this is my way of getting them down on paper.
Everyone thinks acting is easy. It's far from easy, but it's the most gratifying thing I do.
John Huston was a superb master. He knew how to make good films. I did three things with him. One is called Independence. It plays in Philadelphia, for free. It's been playing there for 25 years.
I was an original member of the Actors' Studio.
I've never lost my appetite for acting; it's innovative and challenging.
Well, I was getting a lot of money then, and I wasn't getting any Hollywood films, so I just did those. I'd always do a play in between. Whenever I ran low on funds, I'd always rush off to do a movie somewhere.
