I'm from a working-class family. We didn't have a lot, but we had the arts. You're talking to a guy who is making a living at doing what he loves doing - acting, singing and dancing. So any career ups and downs were not that significant to me; the only things that really powerfully impinged on me were my losses, and there were many in my life.
We really had a commitment to the firefighters to finally get this movie right. Especially after September 11. We really wanted to put our best foot forward and kind of leave our egos at the door and really be what these guys are, which are a lot of selfless wonderful men and women that want to help,
Playing a bad guy is always a freeing experience, because you don't have the same envelope of restrictions as you have playing a good guy. Good guys restrain themselves; they kind of have their moral fiber cut out for them in varying degrees.

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.
We've been friends for 28 or 29 years and we have always been there for each other no matter what. Thick or thin.
Those are usually your better parts because you're not worried about the likeability, ... I think it's a great movie because of the idea that we're not afraid to be at moments unappealing and true to those people who are drinkers and are not always in the best mood. And they're often wicked. And they're sometimes emotional.
