Things parents say to children are oftentimes not heard, but in some cases you pick up on things that your parent would like to see you have done.
From Gene Hackman
Hollywood loves to typecast, and I guess they saw me as a violent guy.
My grandfather had been a newspaper reporter, as was my uncle. They were pretty good writers and so I thought maybe somewhere down the line I would do some writing.
Once, I optioned a novel and tried to do a screenplay on it, which was great fun, but I was too respectful. I was only 100 pages into the novel and I had about 90 pages of movie script going. I realized I had a lot to learn.
