I Found Out That Drama Was A

I Realized Early On That Success Was Tied To Not Giving Up.

As A Matter Of Fact, That Was A Bit Of A Problem For Me At The Beginning Of My Career - The Problem Of Identification. In The Conversation I Played A Character Who Was Gay, So Nobody Recognised Me From American Graffiti. When I Did Apocalypse Now, After Star Wars, I Played An Intelligence Officer Of The American Army. George Lucas Saw The Footage I Had Done And Didn't Recognise Me Until Halfway Through The Scene.

With The Cgi, Suddenly There's A Thousand Enemies Instead Of Six - The Army Goes Off Into The Horizon. You Don't Need That. The Audience Loses Its Relationship With The Threat On The Screen. That's Something That's Consistently Happening And It Makes These Movies Like Video Games And That's A Soulless Enterprise. It's All Kinetics Without Emotion.

It Doesn't Interest Me To Be Harrison Ford. It Interests Me To Be Mike Pomeroy And Indiana Jones And Jack Ryan. I Don't Want To Be In The Harrison Ford Business. I Take What I Do Seriously, But I Don't Take Myself Seriously.

The Focus And The Concentration And The Attention To Detail That Flying Takes Is A Kind Of Meditation. I Find It Restful And Engaging, And Other Things Slip Away.
