That's the biggest rule in Hollywood: Don't spend your own money.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The only reason I'm in Hollywood is that I don't have the moral courage to refuse the money.
Hollywood is a small, familial place. Everyone does business with everybody else. The same complications occur in investment banking.
There's a tendency in this Hollywood machinery to take on too much. You end up not being able to give everything you want.
If you just kind of live a regular life and make good 'Hollywood' money, you have a certain freedom.
As far as my own life goes, I don't buy into the Hollywood scene.
I'm not the Hollywood type. I'm not going to pack up my bags and let me move to Hollywood and stuff like that.
The business of Hollywood, if you don't have other things going on, it will eat you up and spit you out... If you take what those people and that social structure think of you - if you let it govern your life - you might as well just kill yourself.
The way it works in Hollywood is that if you're hot it doesn't matter if you're right for the part or not, you're just offered it.
Hollywood is so governed by the ego, and I never wanted to fall into that trap.
If you go to Hollywood, you've already sold out.
