Sobriety was the greatest gift I ever gave myself.

Sobriety was the greatest gift I ever gave myself. I don't put it on a platform. I don't campaign about it. It's just something that works for me. It enabled me to really connect with another human being - my wife, Sheryl - which I was never able to do before.
When I was filming 'The Outsiders,' my idea of success was getting the next Martin Scorsese movie.
Belonging to one party is acceptable. But my days of just ticking the party box are long over. I judge the candidates for who they are.

I didn't go to Ivy League schools. I dropped out of college to go into movies.
I'd like to build a TV company for myself.
