My mother was a star-struck girl from a little town in Arkansas who had gone to finishing school in New York, and whose mother had given her anything she ever wanted.

One day when I was working on a movie, I stayed at the beach a little too long, and they said, “You are going to ruin a whole day of shooting because you’re so dark. Two days ago you weren’t like this!” So I started putting that in the character; I made him suntanned all the time.

It's always amazing to me the idiosyncrasies people end up disliking others for.

One works in this business - if one works. You do different types of movies.

Women don't like men who know they're good looking. They'd much prefer a man who doesn't know he's good looking.

I've developed a self-discipline since the time I was a child.

I look at scripts as good or bad. If it's bad, it better pay a lot of money.
