If I Wanted To Go

I'll Go Do Films For Three Or Four Months And Then I Can't Wait To Go Home To La. And I Complain About La Left And Right, But Then I Always End Up Wanting To Go Home, You Know?

If I'm In A Social Situation Sometimes I'll Hang Back And Observe People But I Feel Very Much A Part Of Things Most Of The Time And Feel Very Comfortable Socializing And Have For Most Of My Life.

I Felt Like I Was An Outsider. I Think What Happened To Me Made Me Develop This Street Sense Of Watching People And Working Out What Made Them Tick, Wondering Whether I Could Trust Them Or Not. I Went To A Lot Of Schools Along The Coast In California, Made Few Friends And Stayed With Aunts, Uncles And Grandparents While My Folks Tried To Make Ends Meet. It Was Tough. We Had No Money.

I Just Try To Try To Keep An Attitude That I Don't Know What I'm Doing. Not To The Point Where I'm Beating Myself Up, But I Just Go In Thinking That I Have A Lot To Learn. And I Hope I Still Have That Attitude 30 Years From Now.

You Live For Those Really Great Scenes Where You Almost Feel That The Film Has Gone Beyond What Was Printed On The Script Pages And Been Raised To Another Level.
