For Me, Acting Was A Way Of

I'm The First To Admit That I Like Going To, Or My Memories At Least Of Going To Clint Eastwood Movies Or Charles Bronson Or James Bond.

I Don't Like It When People On The Street Say "smile" Or "cheer Up." It's A Real Cheap Line. I'm Feeling Good. I'm Feeling Real Grateful For Everything. It's A Solid Time In My Life. When People Say I Look Sad, They're Wrong.

I Had Been Making A Lot Of Family Oriented Movies, Which I Also Like. But I Still Have A Passion For The Midnight Audience And For Midnight Movies.

I Was Very Happy With Vampire's Kiss, Which In My Opinion Was Almost Like An Independent Laboratory To Start Realizing Some Of My More Expressionistic Dreams With Film Performance. Then Using What I Had Learned In Vampire's Kiss And Putting It Into A Very Big Action Movie In The Form Of Face/off With John Woo. If You Look At Those Two Movies Back To Back, You Can See Where I Stole From My Performance In Vampire's Kiss.

It's Important To Keep The Eccentric Spirit Alive, Because When That Goes, The Work Will Go.
