Our kids are growing up with more privilege than we had; that's true for most of my friends in L.A. I don't know any actor who grew up with any particular privilege, so everyone wrestles with this. And I think, a lot of times, it's about being patient with your kids.

It was shameful and embarrassing that there were two years in a row without a single actor of color nominated. That's insane.

Listen, here's the thing. If you can't spot the sucker in the first half hour at the table, then you ARE the sucker.

If anybody wanted to photograph my life, they'd get bored in a day.

The values that I have are the values I was raised with, from where I'm from, which is a middle-class place. So that informs everything about me, my politics and all that stuff. I mean, politically, I vote against my own self-interest at every election. I actively ask these people to raise my taxes.

Maybe if we sit out for the next few years and let Clint Eastwood get a little experience, he's going to be a good director.

Clint Eastwood enables and allows things to happen. You walk on some sets and it's like walking into an emergency room. It's like, "Come on guys, we're just making a movie here." That tension runs into the performances and into the movie.
