Every Actor Just Wants Good Writing.

I Never Starved. And You Know, Whatever Talent I Have, I've Relied On That, Versus Image Or Star. I Have Just Said, 'hire Me If You Want Somebody Good.' I Tried To Be As Good As I Could Be Every Time Out, And That's Kind Of Bridged The Decades.

Meryl Streep's Brilliant, Just Brilliant. I've Been Fortunate To Do Two Movies With Meryl. And For An Actor To Go Moment To Moment Like She Does, There's No One Better. And She Dances Between Moments. Each Take Is Different Because She's Riding Instincts, She's Riding Impulses. And She Trusts That.

On Cable Now, The Writer Is King. Any Actor Chases That.

I Never Said, 'i'm Going To Be A Big Star.' I Said, 'i'm Going To Be A Good Actor.' And That Took The Pressure Off.

I Know There Are People, If I Go Into A Market Or A City For The First Time, There Are People That Are There That Just Want To See The Famous Person, Or The Guy From 'dumb And Dumber' Or Whatever Movie They Liked. And That's Fine, It Gets Them In The Door, But Then It's My Job To Give Them Something Different.
