If you want a film and they don't want you, sometimes you have to go fight for it. Sometimes that ends up just being a meeting really, just sitting down with them and just saying here is my vision for it and here is why I really love it. But for the most part, I think filmmakers gravitate towards people that are excited - as excited as they are about the film and as passionate about it. So sometimes going after it isn't so much a function of auditioning as it is just sitting down with the filmmaker.

Even if my father wasn't speaking to me, he would never, ever miss a baseball game.

We've all had that moment where the agent thought he hit hold. You hear it's like Hamburger Hill in the background.

For the most part Hollywood is a world of imagination.

Marathon running, for me, was the most controlled test of mettle that I could ever think of. It's you against Darwin.

I have bullshit moments every once in a while - like every actor does.

I do have someone that I work with and she is amazing and I definitely don't have unmitigated abusive tendencies towards her. She is very sweet. I also know what that is like. I have heard my agent thinking he has hit mute on the phone before he, you know, physically unleashes broken glass and cellphones at his poor assistant. It is a tough job under the best of circumstances. I understand that.
