Not to be offensive, not to be capricious, not to be arbitrary, not to be neurotic, not to be an actor outer, you're just trying to get in and you're given so little time to get in gently, but it's always hard.
From William Hurt
I need six weeks of rehearsal and women need nine months and it took me 15 years to figure that out.
The thing is, I don't believe in most of what's done. The amount of financial and imaginative energy that's put into mediocrity is just amazing which I find to be fundamentally offensive as a human being.
It just seems like that because I do a lot of independent films that don't get to the mainstream.
I demand minimal for paid rehearsal and not always six weeks either.
I have a film I want to direct. Gena Rowlands was going to do it with me a long time ago. It's about an older woman who's running a ranch in the west the old fashioned way.
I listen to XM radio because I can get so many overseas news stations.
What's really frustrating with movies is the lack of improvement.
I know what I love about acting - and it's the creative process.
If you're lucky, and not a lot of actors are these days, you get the chance to create a character.
