I Have Some Close Friends I Keep

I Don't Tend To Use Technology All That Much. Of Course, I Can't Avoid It - It's Called The Telephone Nowadays. And I Do A Certain Amount Of Email, Work-related Primarily, On It. But I Don't Do A Lot Of Looking For Things Online.

As Actors, Emotion Is The Sand In The Sandbox For Us. Without Emotion, There's Nothing To Play - And We Are Playing. We Know That. Whether You Think We Do Or Not, We Know That.

One Time, Many, Many Years Ago, I Had The Opportunity To Dye My Hair Brunette For A Film. And The Day I Walked Out Of The Hotel Where I Had It Done, I Walked Out Onto The Street And Realized People Looked Me In The Eye And Greeted Me Good Morning. I'd Never Had That Experience Before! And I Began To Notice That A Brunette Is Treated As An Affable Human Being. Later, When I Dyed My Hair For Lois Riley Blonde, And Then Alice Ward Blonde, People Come Right Up To You, They Touch You On The Arm, They Ask You How You're Doing. Men And Women Both! Blondes Have More Fun.

I'm Very, Very Serious About What I Do. I Think There Are A Lot Of People Out There Sort Of Thinking It's Anybody's Game. You Know, "you Pick Up A Camera And You Make A Movie." My Experiences Over The Years Have Taught Me There's A Lot More Than That To Making A Film - There's Also Getting The Film Seen, And All Kinds Of Complex Realities.

Being An Actor On A Movie Set Is Like Going To The Playground At Recess.
