I couldn't see my father's films because they were restricted and we didn't have videos or DVDs back then.

There are a lot of movies I'd like to throw away. That's not to say that I went in with that attitude. Any film I ever started, I went in with all the hope and best intentions in the world, but some films just don't work.

When we shoot 24, there are so many things I have to worry about, from the script to technical things to my performance, that I dont have a second to be bored or take anything for granted. We produce 24 hours of film a season, which is like making 12 movies.

The writers keep managing to turn the show in on itself, coming up with something that's well thought-out and miraculous.

My focus on 9/11 was on the victims - in the towers, in the planes - and all that loss.

If your ethics in the military, in your training, is going to be counterminded by a one-hour weekly television show we've got a really big problem.

I've wanted to work with my father for 30 years, and I'm really grateful that I finally had the opportunity, and it ended up - the experience and, I believe, the film - better than I could ever have hoped for.
