I don't really like horror shows, horror movies, or any of that. I'm really a lightweight, in terms of that.
It’s more than just saying lines and turning the light on. You have to drive the story—there’s a technical aspect.
I would have to say honestly I was very pleased to be in a film whether it was good or bad with De Niro, Norton and Brando even if I don't have any scenes with them, I thought it was pretty good company to keep.

We don't take it lightly. It impacts us.
