bit good nice social
That was a nice benefit, to have a real bit of social good come out of doing the film,
annual bit call funny high house ireland northern spent steve supposed three time
I've spent a lot of time with Steve, from Northern Ireland, to Sarajevo, to Utah, but probably most memorably, to our annual New Year's pilgrimages to our house in High Falls, where we have what we call in Ireland 'a bit of a piss-up' for three days. I know it's probably the time that I'm supposed to tell a funny story or two about Steve ... because he's such a funny man, but they're private. You're not going to get them.
annoying behind bit camera clock looking move paul scene
Paul sometimes would be a little bit annoying to me, because I'd be behind the camera on a scene I wasn't in, looking at the clock and going, 'Come on, we've got to move on,'

almost comedy coming dime episodes flip quite serious straight
It can flip on a dime from being almost farce-like to being quite serious and then back. That's what a lot of us like. I would say it's a comedy more than a drama. But then there are some episodes that are coming up that are straight drama.

Some actors actually think about what they're going to talk about during the interview - they read up and meditate and plan quotes and get all inspired. It's very smart, but it's so planned. I never think to do that.

Baseball should be the only thing on an eight year old boy's mind.
great-things parting
I don't get any parts I don't get offered. There are lots of great things out there I would like to do that I don't get offered.
moving athlete character
My thing about looking good is that it should be the character. If I'm playing a character who's concerned about his body - an athlete, say - I'll get in shape. If I'm playing a character who doesn't or wouldn't, I don't. I almost never get in shape for a movie, even though I know it would be a good career move.
tvs these-days
There's certainly more work for me in TV these days.
cities guy woods
I'm not a city kind of guy. I'm happiest when I'm tromping through the woods.
