real people want
I had such a good time working with John Woo and John Travolta, and it was so professional. I want to work with people who are real professionals.
games levels certain
I have brought a PS2 on set with me before. But games can be really addicting, and that's dangerous. So I tend to keep it fairly limited on a certain level.
fun thinking games
I think games are starting to branch out. It's not just guys sitting at their computer stations. Games are so fun, that everybody gets into them a little bit.
heart choices want
After I did Untamed Heart I wanted to do a film that was outrageous. I really wanted to do, you know, a performance. I don't want to allow my image to rule the choices that I make.
hard-work good-times film
In truth, making films doesn't feel like hard work because I always have such a good time doing it.
walking
I don't like to be walking around in a vacuum, lost in my own thoughts. I'm much better with information.
kids people toys
I was a shy, quiet kid. I was happiest playing by myself with my toys, rather than hanging around people.
keys talking long
The attraction of being wild is living on the edge, living up to the reputations of the people you've been following or emulating. People are always talking about how wild and exciting they were, but the key word is 'were', because there's a long list of dead, famous people.
art doe boundaries
Art does imitate life, it has to come from somewhere. To put boundaries and limitations on it doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
balance mediation feels
As you get older you learn some balance and mediation in your life - that's where I am right now. I feel pretty comfortable about things.
funny-friend differences worst-enemy
I just killed my best friend... and my worst enemy. What's the difference?
laughter vacation play
I took a lot of time off after Mobsters and although I did something I had never done before, which was to direct a play, The Laughter Epidemic, it felt like a vacation.
heathers impression extremes
The extreme always seems to make an impression.
mistake levels ridiculous
My mistakes do happen on a grand scale and very public level. They're humiliating, embarrassing. But if nothing bad happens to you, you'll just continue to act ridiculous.
