getting-older kind comfortable
But I'm kind of comfortable with getting older because it's better than the other option, which is being dead. So I'll take getting older.
thinking likes third-person
George Clooney likes to talk about himself in the third person mostly. He's always enjoyed it. Listen, I don't like to think in those terms, where you just have to completely separate yourself one from the other.
flavor-of-the-month months flavor
I'm the flavor of the month.
persons ifs
If you're famous, I don't - for the life of me - I don't understand why any famous person would ever be on Twitter.
rehearsal process
The rehearsal process in general is about trusting one another.
real want limits
I have a real interest in pushing some of the limits of things that studios don't want to make.
good-life lucky brass
I do happen to have a good life... But I also like to work. I feel like I got the brass ring and I got very lucky in this.
actors directors march
'Ides of March' I did for scale - scale as a director, scale as an actor, scale as a writer.
people trying actors
What I try to do is make sure that the directors I'm working with are on the same page and want to do the same kind of films. You can really protect yourself as an actor if you work with really good people. It can hide a lot of flaws along the way.
good-movie scripts directors
It's possible for me to make a bad movie out of a good script, but I can't make a good movie from a bad script.
country issues years
Over the years, over the history of our country, liberals have stood on many of the right sides of the issues.
leader faces needs
The problem is, we elected a manager and we need a leader. Let's face it: Bush is just dim.
stars father kentucky
You have to remember that in the microcosm of Cincinnati, Ohio, through northern Kentucky, my father was a big star, still is. So that made my sister and me really visible. Everybody knew us, talked about us.
character years people
The people I've respected most in the industry over the years - Paul Newman, for instance. I just loved the way he handled growing old on-screen. It's understanding that you're now basically a character actor. Which is fine, but you have to pay attention to it.
