The Thing I Tried To Remember When

I Come From A Pretty Working-class Neighborhood In Chicago. Hard Work Was Just Expected Of You. It Wasn't Some Noble Thing You Did; It Was A Prerequisite. It's What A Man Did. You Get Up, You Put On Your Boots, And You Work Hard. We've Lost A Lot Of That, I'm Afraid.

I Always Get A Headache The First Time I Watch A Movie I'm In. Because You're Staring At The Screen So Hard, Your Brain Is Doing All This Work Trying To Put Things In Context Of What The Day-to-day Experience Of Making It Was. And The Timeline That's In Your Head Of When It Was Made, And On What Day, How You Felt. And Then You're Also Trying To Grasp What It's Been Edited Into.

I Always Felt Really Guilty If I Spent Too Much Time Playing Video Games. It's A Colossal Waste Of Time. And I Can't Say It's A Very Satisfying Feeling At The End Of The Day, If You've Spent Eight Hours Playing A Video Game; You Just End Up Feeling Kind Of Spent, And Used.

A Script Is Like A Theory Of A Movie.

Most Boys' First Hero Is Their Father. That Was Definitely True Of My Dad. He Was A Proud Irish American And He Taught Me A Lot About Ethics And Responsibility. He Also Introduced Me To A Lot Of Wonderful Folk Music.
