I feel like with 'On the Town,' it was the perfect production and the perfect opportunity.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The first day of 'The Town' was one of the most satisfying days of my career.
I saw 'On The Town' about nine times. I discovered it. I loved it. I was in college.
Once I was in the city, I really enjoyed it. Just to experience things. There was so much new stuff.
I liked working in a series, going to work every day and not having to leave town for long locations. I was producing them and building an audience.
I had no particular image of Chicago in mind when I wrote 'My Kind of Town.' All I wanted to do was write a song in praise of Chicago, and that's what I did.
I loved Nashville. I was amazed by the whole place.
'Trading Places' did more for my career than anything I'd ever done. It was a zonking great hit, and it was also just a joy to do.
'Darkness on the Edge of Town' came out of a huge body of work that had tons of very happy songs.
They were fun days, and we set the town on fire with every movie we did.
'Smallville' was a really awesome opportunity.
