Nowadays, Politically, Everybody Is Promising Everything. That's

I Always Like To Try Different Things, Different Genres; Stories That Have A Dramatic Element And Can Generate Conflict Which I Find Appealing; Where The Characters Have To Overcome Obstacles. That Kind Of Thing Is Challenging.

Acting Is An Animal Thing, Not An Intellectual Thing.

At Waco, Was There Really An Urgency To Get Those People Out Of The Compound At That Particular Time? Was The Press Going To Make It Look Heroic For The Bureau Of Alcohol, Tobacco, And Firearms? At Ruby Ridge, There Was One Guy In A Cabin At The Top Of The Mountain. Was It Necessary For Federal Agents To Go Up There And Shoot A 14-year-old In The Back And Shoot A Woman With A Child In Her Arms? What Kind Of Mentality Does That?

I Found Out That A Lot Of My Liberal Friends Weren't Liberal Because They Weren't Liberal About Approaching Anybody Else's Ideas, Or At Least Standing For It. They Started Getting Really Animalistic About, "i Can't Even Associate With This Guy. He's Stupid. He's An Idiot."

Stage Actors Are Usually Much More Conscious Of Speaking Up And Making Sure That Everyone Can Hear In The Back Of The Theatre; A Film Actor Probably Thinks Of That A Little Less. Unfortunately, There's A Style Of Acting Going Round, Especially With The Younger Actors, Where They Talk Without Even Moving Their Lip. Maybe It's Because My Hearing Probably Isn't What It Was 40 Years Ago But I'm Sitting There Going "what Did They Say"?
