My brother is the lifelong musician, he made the choice to do that when we were very, very young kids. I remember him playing in bands and listening to the music he was writing in the house - he's nine years older than me.

Before Footloose, the things I'd done weren't cute. In Diner I was an alcoholic.

I think everybody reacts to entertainment with a different kind of visceral way, probably mostly based on their own personal experiences.

I did all the dialect work, all my character work completely by myself.
