Nothing Spooky Or Terrible Happened

I Was With Brian De Palma At The Time, And He Said He Wrote The Role Specifically For Me. I Don't Know What That Says About The Way He Saw Me, Since The Role Was Of A Castrating Killer. Brian Came One Morning To The House, Said "here's Your Christmas Present." He Wrote The Character To Have A Swedish Accent, But Since I Couldn't Pull That Off, He Switched It To French-canadian. It Was Such A Romantic Time In My Life. Everyone Was Young And Passionate And Convinced They Were Going To Change Film Forever.

I Wandered Around Not Knowing What I Was Doing In The Great Waldo Pepper And Feeling Pretty Lost, And They Rightly Cut My Part Down. I Don't Think I Was In Very Good Emotional Shape. I Think I Was A Bit Of A Mess. I'd Done About Six Movies Back-to-back, And Was In A State Of Complete Exhaustion.

I Was Reading All These Books, Including The Bible - And I'm An Atheist.

The Only Movie That Ever Really Scared Me Was The Exorcist,but Even Then, I Was Laughing Part Of The Time.

I'm A Very Good Screamer, That's For Sure.
