As an actor and a fledgling director, I'm used to making snap decisions that I'll have to live with.
A few years ago, I got to a point where I realised that the only way you can tell someone's age is how they live their life. The candles on the cake mean absolutely nothing.
JFK is a role I've always dreamt of playing.
I sadly never got to my prom. I was shooting 'The Outsiders.'
I would've loved Jack Kennedy. I would've loved to have campaigned for him and supported him. I wish there were more like him today.
I - you know, I loved politics more as a younger man.
Like most guys, I don't come to beauty regimes naturally. I'm dragged kicking and screaming by the best in the world.
He's got instincts, great instincts, and he loves talent.
There is a movie called 'My Dog Skip,' starring my 'Outsiders' costar Diane Lane. I do not recommend it. If you have a child, particularly one about to leave home, watching this film is to be emotionally waterboarded.
I always like stories where the egg ends up on my face.
My son Matthew's beloved dog is a Jack Russell. His name is Buster. Matthew picked him as a puppy, when he was tiny himself.
My thing is personal freedoms: freedoms for the individual to love whom they want, do with what they want. In fact, I want the government out of almost everything.
My parents did divorce, but my dad has always been present for me and loving me and my mom as well when she was alive.
My roles in comedies from 'Austin Powers' to 'Tommy Boy' to 'Wayne's World,' were sort of comedic 'straight man' parts. My character on 'Parks & Recreation' is the comic relief in a comedy. To play a character that appears strictly for laughs is sort of new for me and really fun.
