You get money out of acting. You get gray hair out of directing. Actually, I get more of a rush from directing.

I don't care about Clinton's haircuts or his affairs or any of that stuff.

It simply comes down to this, Get Busy Living, or Get Busy Dying.

Susan is just great. I know I'm biased, but she's a great actress.
