I think I was, like, 23 or something [on The Breakfast Club]. I was the oldest of the five. Emilio [Estevez] and Ally [Sheedy] were a year younger. The only real difference was that Molly [ Ringwald] and Michael [Hall] still had to go to school. They could shoot, like, a half day. So a lot of my close coverage was done with Molly's stand-in, so Molly could do her schoolwork.

Ice-T was just a pleasure to work with. He was a smart gentleman.

Fandango is not really a Western. It's really just set in Texas. It's a road picture. And then I did one that hasn't come out yet called Kreep, which is set in Texas, but it's not really a Western. But it has a more rural-Texas feel to it.

My first paid acting job was a movie called Fandango. It also starred Kevin Costner.

I put less stock in others' opinions than my own. No one else's opinions could derail me.

I love the rehearsal process in the theatre, and the visceral sense of contact and communication with a live audience.

There was no one really like John Bender at my high school.
