I love women more than anything.
I always have issues with trust.
I was raised in New York City and raised in the New York City theater world. My father was a theater director and an acting teacher, and it was not uncommon for me to have long discussions about the method and what the various different processes were to finding a character and exploring character and realizing that character.
The thing that stood out above and beyond all the experiences was this relationship with the nine-month-old baby. On weekends, I’d be thinking about going back to set on Monday just to see the baby.
You make movies for the people. If critics happen to like them too, well, that’s a home run.
I’ve turned down twentysomething million dollars for movies.
When you go to the movies with your whole family, it’s a different experience. For some reason, it’s something that you’re all doing together and you take away something special in that.
My mom insisted on multigrain bread and never allowed soda in the house.
My mom used to say that I became a fighter and a scrapper and a tough guy to protect who I am at my core.
If you’re the type of person who has to fulfill your dreams, you’ve gotta be resourceful to make sure you can do it. I came out to California when I was 21, thinking my New York credentials would take me all the way. I came back home a year later all dejected and a failure.
