brother stars thinking
Oh, absolutely. James Caan was the first movie star I'd ever met, much less worked with. He was an important person to me and my brothers and Wes. Bottle Rocket was the first movie for all of us. As you know, back then, [Caan] was having some career changes, I think.
trying get-better way
I'm really just doing whatever comes my way and trying to stay busy and get better at what I'm doing.
years america people
I spent so many years with people saying, 'Hey, you're like America's boyfriend!
growing-up real kind
I never had to say to myself, 'OK now, I've got to grow up and work for a bank, or go and sell real estate.' I never had to make that kind of break.
thinking roles done
I like to think I've done a lot of different kinds of roles, but obviously I have done quite a lot of comedies.
stuff looks difficult
The physical stuff of a movie is difficult. It's one of those things where it's just harder than it looks.
busy wanted
I just always wanted to stay busy.
fun dad drinking
My dad was in a fraternity back in the 1950s, and they sound really fun back then. Nowadays they sound like they can get a little heavy-duty in terms of the hazing and the drinking. Im not so much into the idea of being made to do a bunch of insane stuff just so I can have the privilege of hanging around certain people... Thats probably why I was never in a fraternity.
type
I don't really have a type of woman.
fun drama opposites
You're just playing a role, whether it's a drama or a comedy. I find it really fun to sort of play opposite Uma.
men clock-is-ticking feels
Do men have a biological clock? I feel like I do. Something is definitely ticking!
drama cutting goal
Especially with a comedy, you've got the clear cut goal of trying to make a scene funny. It's not like drama where you're trying to achieve some kind of emotion or trying to further the story along. You're trying to figure out what's the funniest way to do something.
careers path career-path
I have never, for better or worse, thought about a 'career path' or anything like that.
struggle trying different
I've been trying to bust into the comedy business my whole life. It's hard in Hollywood to do different things. I know this. It's a struggle.
