I always ask, why can't I be just like Cary Grant or something.
Filmmaking is a difficult process. There are the logistics of making a film. You have to do your part, and then change the entire thing around to do someone else's part. A lot of the magic is lost, in between that, and you have to figure out how to get it back.
Directors, producers can make you look good or make you look bad.
But I guess I like playing flawed guys 'cause it gives a place for the characters to go.
There are different reasons to make movies.
You either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain.
I think they are very important because westerns have a code and a symbolism.
The only morality in a cruel world is chance.
A film has its own life and takes its own time.
The F.B.I. is about nuts and bolts. It's all about witnesses and procedure and walking the streets.
I like doing movies with kids in them, and you're explaining things. They're teaching you and you're teaching them, and the audience can loop through that.
But I will say this: In my humble opinion, knowing nothing about it, I do believe that they have remote viewers working on where Osama Bin Laden is. I absolutely, 100%, convinced of that.
I mean, the problem is, I think I'm a great writer.
Yeah, but there's nobody who represents romance to me like Cary Grant.
