looks shooting time
Shooting in Brooklyn is like opening a time capsule. Nothing has changed. Everything looks like it did in the eighties.

My god-father, Bob Wall, was in a couple of Bruce Lee movies, and he trained Bruce Lee when he came to America.
It's so easy to be selfish in your 20s and not want to sacrifice.
hughes john missed movies
I was just after Generation X. I missed the John Hughes movies; I had to watch them on TBS.
almost best follow gets time trouble
I follow my heart in almost every instance, and it gets me in trouble most of the time. But I don't care. I think that's the best way I can live.

My old man taught me a lot of stuff in his death that I don't even know if he would have been able to teach me had he been alive. And that was to never do stuff that can jeopardize the people you love and hurt them.
pluck seconds takes
It only takes 30 seconds to pluck my eyebrows, but it hurts. I have to tweeze 'em in the middle once a week. Otherwise, I look like Bert from 'Sesame Street.'
good people
I really don't like hurting people; I like making people feel good.
good love tap
Tap dancing is something I love, and I've been working on it to get really good.
closed sets
Personally, when things upset me, I get quiet and closed off. I have nothing to say, and a chill sets in while I think about what's going on.
absorb age life living people positive sponge supportive thrust
Living life at a young age is like being a sponge thrust into the ocean. You absorb what's around you. If you're around people who are supportive and positive, that's how you look at the world.
I've often accused my grandchildren of never having seen one of my films.
along awkward boy frequent home sort worship
I was a shy, awkward sort of a boy and my father's frequent absences from home, along with my hero worship for him, made me even shyer.
anyone carbon emulate trying
I never tried to emulate my father. Anyone trying to do that would be a second-rate carbon copy.
