Tim Robbins had real confidence in college. He literally stole actors from the theater department at UCLA to be in his plays. The department heads got so mad at him.

I'd really like to do a movie again with Tim Robbins and Clint Eastwood. They were really good guys.

But if one could go back in time, I'd love to have been directed by Howard Hawks, who's one of my great heroes. One of the greatest directors there ever was. He directed probably one of the greatest westerns of all time in 'Rio Bravo'.

I would have loved to have been in a Hitchcock movie.

I was convinced there as only one actor to play Templeton the Rat, and that was Tony Randall.

I really wanted to work with David Lynch. I was a big fan of The Elephant Man and Eraserhead.

My dream role is to play in a story of how the Joker became the Joker, and I would play the young Heath Ledger.

I mean I would still love to be in Mel Brooks' movies; he's great.

He was such a fabulous drama coach. What better person to have than Alfred Hitchcock? His work as a director was impeccable. I learned so much.

Doing Tim's film is always going to be the most pleasure. Let me just put it that way. So, without drawing favorites one way or the other, getting back with him and doing Mars Attacks! was certainly a special treat.
