I'm As Serious As A Heart Attack.

We [me And Eugene Levy] Both Try To Play The Reality Of A Moment And Don't Try To Impose Humor On Something Where It Doesn't Belong. Contrary To What Other People Seem To Think Sometimes.

I've Never Been To Jail. I've Never Been Arrested. I've Never Been Locked Up.

It Was Actually A Lot More Helpful To Have Calvin Hart, A Cop, As My Template. He Was Also My Technical Advisor On Shaft. This Time, I Kinda Got To Go To Jersey City With Him, And Hang Around, And Watch Him Interact With Other Cops, People In The Projects, And See What It Means To Be Him. People Call Him 'big Daddy' And He's This Larger-than-life Hero To A Lot Of People.

I Trust Most People. Not Producers.

Not Everything's Made To Win An Academy Award.
