I'm A Big Old Romantic.

Life Is Apogee, Apex, Decline; Life Is Death - And Everything Else Is Open To Discussion.

Anything That's Different From Your Own Realm Of Experience As A Human Being, Whether It's Driving A Car Or A Boat, Or Using Guns, Anything That Separates You From Yourself And Leads You More Towards This Character's Existence Is A Big Help.

I Had A List Of About 35 Restaurants, 25 Of Which Were Fast-food Joints All Around Los Angeles And I Didn't Get A Quarter Through The List. It Just Became Me Thinking About Going To These Places And Wanting To Enjoy The Food And Food Just Not Being Enjoyable Anymore.

I Think That Is What You Want To Do As A Cinemagoer - To Experience Something Fully. Some Things Don't Let You Experience Them Fully. It May Be Your Own Preordained Prejudice Where You Can't Experience Them Fully. But When You Come Out Of The Cinema Having Felt, Thought, And Experienced Your Way Through Two Hours, That Is A Really Cool Thing.

Yeah, I Know My Way Around Some Guns, Which Is Weird Because I Have No Time For Them. I Don't Like Them At All But I Can Take Apart Guns And Put Them Back Together And Stuff, So I Didn't Have To Go To The Range. I Don't Think I Will Ever To Go 'the Range' Again! I've Done Enough Of That.
