Poverty Is A Very Complicated Issue, But

I've Done Quite A Few Movies, I Generally Can Feel That I'm Not Right For The Role Or A General Fear If I Can Pull It Off, And Him Giving That "tag" So To Speak Gave Me The Confidence. Like That Miles Davis Line, "don't Worry About Mistakes, There Aren't Any." Once You Are The Part, You're The Guy, So You Can't Not Be The Guy Because You're It.

I Had Success As An Actor Relatively Early. When I Was 22, I Got Nominated For An Academy Award For The Last Picture Show, So That Road, You Know, Had The Least Resistance. I Was Doing My Music All That Time, But It's Pretty Hard To Turn Down These Great Movie Offers. And My Father Counseled Me; He Said, "you Know, One Of The Wonderful Things About Acting Is That You Can Incorporate All Of Your Interests Into The Different Parts You Play." I'm Glad I Listened To The Old Man, Because That's The Way It Turned Out.

I Hate It When There's A Good Movie, Someone Overhypes It And I'm Disappointed That I Don't Like It More.

I Do My Best To Hold The Director's Opinion Above My Own.

I Don't Think I Ever Went Down That Movie Star Path. I Always Enjoy Taking A 90-degree Turn From The Last Thing I Did.
