My dad was an architect, and he wasn't a rich guy, but in our little world in Philadelphia he was famous. He loved to see his picture in the paper. I wanted to be more famous than him.

I'm obsessed with zombies. I like watching zombie movies and I read zombie books.

My kids don't watch my movies. What I want to do is go home and hug my kids, talk to them and engage with them.

I'm a vagabond. I have a suitcase that is ready to go at a moment's notice. The thought of being in one place for a long time, or playing one character for a long time, is terrifying for me.

I don't watch the movies I make, so I haven't seen 'Footloose' since it came out. You see this young, hungry actor, it's pretty fun. I was the only one they screen tested. It was an attempt by the director and producer to talk the head of the studio into hiring me because they didn't want me.

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

Any idiot can get laid when they're famous. That's easy. It's getting laid when you're not famous that takes some talent.
