It Probably Goes Without Saying

In General, I'm Always Interested In Characters Who Have Kind Of Extreme Aspects To Them, Who Are In Some Ways Larger Than Typical People.

The Word "hedonistic" To Me Means Pleasure Above All Else. My Pleasure Above All Else.

There Are Some Directors Who Don't Like The Set Much. They Like Post-production, Where You Have All The Ingredients In The Can - You've Got All The Footage, All The Music, The Various Effects - And Then You Have To Do The Alchemy Necessary To Make It All Good, A Long And Very Key Process Of Putting Everything Together And Making It Into The Cogent Thing That You Want.

In My Career, I've Had Kind Of A Strange Trajectory As An Actor. I Started Out Doing Movies And Theater And Stuff, But Then I Had A Terrible Problem With Stage Fright As An Actor On Stage, And I Quit Stage Acting For A Long, Long Time.

I Was Always Around People Who Were In The Business From The Time I Was An Absolute Baby. I Grew Up In New York City, And My Parents, My Sister, And I Had A House On Fire Island, And They Were Part Of A Set Of People That Were All Close And Friendly, Most Of Whom Were Involved In Show Business In One Regard Or Another. So It Was Always Familiar To Me, And I Kind Of Enjoyed It.
