I had learned something of Miami from people who had visited there, so I knew what to expect.
You don't have to become something you're not to be better than you were.
We suffer pain, we hang tight to hope, we nurture expectations, we are plagued occasionally by fears, we are haunted by defeats and unrealized hopes . . . The hoplessness of which I speak is not limited.
The older we get the less afraid we are.
When I set out to become an actor, I had set myself a standard.
My father was a certain kind of man - I saw how he treated my mother and his family and how he treated strangers. And I vowed I would never make a film that would not reflect properly on my father's name.
