James Brown became my father. He would talk to me the way a father talked to a son. He became the father I never had.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I named my new son James Joseph Brown II. I think he's going to be a lot better than I was.
I was a James Brown junkie as a kid.
James Brown was the Monday-to-Friday guy. He was the hardest man in show business. He was like your dad and your uncle: He showed up, and he hit hard.
It was really important in my relationship with James Caan that I understood the relationship between the family and the father.
What my first son James did was allow me to care for something in this world when I couldn't care for myself. James saved my life.
I think the best thing about being James Brown is looking at my little son. Hopefully I can make my son a role model to a lot of people.
I never knew my father. He was never married to my mother; he was never a part of my life. It was just my mom, my brother and me.
I adored my father.
My father was a huge influence on me.
Dad was the first man I fell in love with. He was a very funny man. He grew up in the East End of London and was very dynamic, and I understood why my mother fell in love with him.
