I Love Westerns, I'd Love To Make

One Of My Favorite Artists Is Tom Waits, Whom Most People Think Of As A Wonderful Singer-songwriter And A Great Poet. I Certainly Think Of Him That Way, But I Also Know Him As A Terrific Actor. You Know, That Persona That He Puts On When He's Doing His Music Comes From Being An Actor, Figuring Out A Persona.

Sometimes I Think Of Movie Acting As Advanced Pretend.

Kevin Bacon And I Recently Worked On A Move Together, R.i.p.d. Just Before We'd Begin A Scene, When All Of Us Would Feel The Normal Anxiety That Actors Feel Be- Fore They Start To Perform, Kevin Would Look At Me And The Other Actors With A Very Serious Expression On His Face And Say: "remember, Everything Depends On This!" It Would Make Us All Laugh. On The One Hand, It's Not True Of Course, But On The Other, Everything Does Depend On This, On Just This Moment And Our Attitude Toward This Moment.

I Have Hesitation Making Any Kind Of Decision, Really In My Life. I'm Really Slow At It.

One Of The Tough Things About Being An Actor, Probably The Hardest Thing, Is Getting Your Foot In The Door, And My Father Handled That For Me At A Very Early Age.
