I Believe In Luck And Fate And

[ The Finest Hours] Reminded Me A Lot Of A Film I Did Called Unstoppable In That You Have A Driving Thriller Aspect Of The Film And It's Not All That Complicated Of A Story And There's A Simple Elegance To It. I Liked That. It Is Also Driven By A Really Strong Romance And Ordinary Men Doing Extraordinary Things. I Love That.

My Grandmother Was An Actress Too. In The Thirties And Forties She Was Under Contract With Universal Studios. Crazy Credits, Lots Of Them. My Dad Was Also Under Contract With Universal Studios. And My First Film Was Shot On The Same Stage They Both Worked On At Universal.

With Film, Oftentimes You Work In A Vacuum And Then You Get On A High Wire And Then You Try It And Then The Day's Over And That Piece Of Film Exists Somewhere In A Vault For 1000,000 Years And That's It.

I Find It Really Hard To Even Read Another Script While Shooting.

We Come From Fallible Parents Who Were Kids Once, Who Decided To Have Kids And Who Had To Learn How To Be Parents. Faults Are Made And Damage Is Done, Whether It's Conscious Or Not. Everyone's Got Their Own 'stuff,' Their Own Issues, And Their Own Anger At Mom And Dad. That Is What Family Is. Family Is Almost Naturally Dysfunctional.
