Live Like You're Already Dead, Man. Have

You Don't Want To Vilify Your Ego.

Like Most Of The Movies I Get Involved With, I Resisted As Long As Possible, I Really Try To Figure Out Why I Shouldn't Do It And This One Had Plenty Of Reasons "not To Do It".

I Remember In One Of My Early Films I Had A Drunk Scene. It Was Kiss Me Goodbye, With Sally Field, And I Was Playing This Kind Of Nerdy Guy Who Gets Drunk And Dances. And So I Thought, "oh Well, I'll Just Get Drunk And Do The Dance." And It Was Wonderful, But Then I Had The Rest Of The Day, And The Next Day. So I Learned That You Don't Really Have To Do The Things That Your Character Is Doing. But Us Actors, We Use Something Called Sense Memory. I've Certainly Been Drunk Before, And Part Of My Job Is To Recall That Without Getting Drunk.

I Like To Know Where The Camera Is.

My M.o. As Far As Choosing Projects Is I Really Try Not To Work. I Try To Not Do The Scripts That Are Offered Me. I'm In This Wonderful Position To Be Able To Do That. The Reason I Do That Is Because I Know What It Takes Once I Engage, What That Means For Me Personally And For My Wife.
