When I Was A Kid,

Well, I Was Coming Off Of Being On 'law & Order,' And I Was A Little Worried That It Might Be The End Of My Career - I've Never Been One Of Those Actors With A Lot Of Confidence That The Next Good Job Will Come Along.

There's A Lot Of Actors Out There Or People Who Want To Be Actors. It's Unique To Find Somebody That, You Know, Needs To Be An Actor.

It's Something That People Relate To - And I Hope My Kid Doesn't Relate To - But There's A Level Of Believability In Playing Complex Characters. You Know, Christopher Walken Has Done Some Hilarious Comedies, De Niro. There's Great Room For Complexity And Darkness To Do Well In Comedies.

There's Not A Lot Of Room Anymore For What I Call 'made-up' Drama. The Drama Comes From Real Places Now - Marriage Takes Work And Focus, The Kid Stuff Takes Patience And Commitment. And If You Don't Grow As People And As A Couple, Within All Of That, Then You've Got Some Real Drama.

I Had A Lot Of Chaos In My Very Early Years Before I Was Old Enough To Know What Was Going On, And Then I Just Skated Through The Rest Of My Childhood Without Dealing With It.
