I played the best role I've ever seen on TV or film in the last five years. It was hugely gratifying.

I've been so good in so many movies that nobody saw.

I've made some movies that I really loved that nobody saw.

Which is why I felt I was truly blessed this year, with leads in two nice films, and also the luxury of being able to do a studio film and an independent afterwards was fantastic.

I had the greatest year of my career in 2007. It's a year that I'm very proud of.

I judge movies on how much fun I had while I was doing them. I had a great time on 'The Right Stuff.' Doing that was fantastic. And there was the year I did 'The Rookie' and 'Far From Heaven,' which was amazing because those two different roles were just so far apart.

I was a failed actor, but for 25 years, I got to go on stage anyway, and I loved it. I've still got the day job, and the travel bug.

Personally, the first year when I started making enough money just from acting - by that, I mean not doing anything else but acting - was around 2003.

When 'Mulholland Dr.' was voted the Best Film of the Decade, that was very meaningful for me. That film opened up incredible doors for me, and I believe that that was the reason I was given opportunities to play all kinds of characters.
