My son tried to work in films and he ultimately gave it up, he finally couldn't make a living, he couldn't support himself. He worked all the time and he didn't make enough money to have a house, have an apartment.

I would like to feel that I have a range and that it's not just a matter of being a comic actor or a serious actor, because those are really artificial classifications, I think.

I just hope that some of the movies I'm in are still welcome years from now.

I got a phone call from Douglas Campbell and from Jerome Guthrie, who offered me a job out of the blue.

Part of the film business is, if you want an apple, you buy an apple.

If you're an employer, you want to hire an employee who'll do their job, not do your bidding.

Every actor wants to have a character that changes, that has some kind of movement, that gets from point A to point B, that doesn't just supply one note.
