I'd always tried to resist playing the supervirility thing. I liked showing the vulnerability of age.
From Clint Eastwood
Movies are fun, but they are no cure for cancer.
I like a drama.
I knew Billy Wilder socially and would have loved to work with him.
I do believe in the energy and the productivity of the American business world.
In past generations, people would try to play younger than they really are. My trick is, I don't try to play younger than I really am.
It's always appealing to play a character that has to overcome himself as well as an obstacle. It makes the drama so much deeper.
Why am I a star? It can't be because of looks.
When I'm a director, I look at myself the actor as a completely different person. It's somebody else up there, an actor playing a role. I keep myself out of it.
When I was a kid, I thought movies just came from air. I thought they just appeared.
