Nothing In Life Is Unfair. It's Just Life. To The Extent That I Had Any Inner Turmoil, I Had Only Myself To Blame. I Also Thought Of My Two Boys And What Kind Of Example I Hoped To Be.

I'd Done Light Comedy. In Some Quarters, About Last Night... Is A Romantic Comedy. So It Wasn't Like I'd Been Doing Sophie's Choice My Entire Career. But For Whatever Reason, Nobody Had Really Given Me The Room Or The Ability To Be Out And Out Funny. And Lorne [michaels] And Mike [myers] And Chris [farley] And Dana [carvey], That Crop Really Helped Me Do That.

[ed Lauter] Was An Actor's Actor. I Love Working With That Class Of Actor. You Know, They Come In, They Do It, No Bullshit. There's No Artifice, There's No Fanciness, They're Just Honest And Tough And Direct.
