When my mother died, it sort of put a damper on things. My career didn't have the same significance or excitement. It had always been about doing well for my family - my brothers, sisters, father, mother. Then something interesting and important happened - I started doing things for me.
I am very healthy. Career wise, even old men get to be in movies. So as long as I am healthy, I will continue to make movies.
I wouldn't trade my career with anybody's. I'd trade a few movies with Tom Hanks - 'Apollo 13 and 'Forrest Gump' - but other than that, I love my career.
I think, for sure, 'Saturday Night Fever' and 'Pulp Fiction' were kind of bookends for - or the pillars of - my career.
I'm too busy looking for the next role to do. I think about how to continue, to survive in the same vein. I like my career and my life as it is.
The good and wonderful thing about my whole career is that I've always felt that the audience, if I do it well, will track wherever I go, whether it's President or a lawyer or bad guy or good. All I have to do is execute the material enough where they buy into it. I've had the great luxury of the audiences accepting that.
It would be another side game to play.
I wanted my own little airliner in the backyard, ... I'd have my girlfriends use their Brownie uniforms to be the flight attendants, and I was the captain and they would have to pretend they were serving people.
Scientology is one of the least homophobic religions. It's not very interested in the body at all.
Every move he makes is a selling shot. I was overwhelmed.
There's no reason why a film shouldn't choose Florida. But the incentive matters.
Yesterday we left the house, kissed the kids goodbye, then we went into the back yard, got in a jet and flew to London. That was pretty cool,
We'd use IVF. It's not a big deal any more. Children are such a joy.
I would love to do that, ... We're planning on doing that in the near future, perhaps later this year.
