Actors become actors because they loved entertaining their family by putting on the lampshade and dancing around as a kid, ... That's not my personality. For me, the fun part of making movies is seeing it as a director sees it. I like the architecture of movies. I like knowing what's coming and working to set that up.

So, yes, there's nothing I love more than listening to directors talk about their movies.

But the reason I became, why I wanted to be in the business was because there was Midnight Cowboy.

But now I really don't want to work unless I really, really care about a project.

What I didn't realize is how completely consumed I would be by my sons. I didn't know that the rest of my life would become so little a priority.

Cruelty might be very human and very cultural, but it is not acceptable and it is not an option.

~I used to think, What if there's an interesting movie and it conflicts with the boys going to a new school for the first time?... Well, I didn't anticipate that was going to be about a two-second dilemma. I didn't know the choices would be so easy to make.~
