For Some Directors, I'm The Actor From

[in Relationships With A Directors] I Want To Be Able To Give And Take, And I Can't Name What It Is: Respect, Energy, Investment In The Task, Focus, Humor, Intelligence, But I Always Feel Responsible For Taking The Money.

I Was Always Very Grateful I Was Never Hot. In The Entire Length Of My Career, I Haven't Been The Most Adored.

You Get A Sense Of Reference There. You Feel Part Of Something That's Got Order And Balance And Harmony To It. All The Distraction And Noise, All The Confusion Of Misplaced, Misdirected Energy Just Don't Happen There.

I've Never Been Bothered By Proximity To Special Effects And I've Never Felt Disadvantaged By Them. They're All Part Of A Movie, And When The Movie's Under Control I Don't Feel Upstaged By Them.

I Think People Only Have So Much Interest In Anybody, And If You Barrage Them In Between The Times You Have Something To Offer Them You Become A Personality Rather Than An Actor - Much More Short-lived. I Only Work Once A Year. And That's Enough.
