I usually describe it as, 'Being the adventures of a young man whose principal interests are snails, salt, pipe and how to get home -- as tormented by a hubristic, racist inner psyche,'

It's originally a mathematical term, ... Something that veers off the line is eccentric, not concentric. If you look at the poetry of that, there really isn't anything wrong with going off the line and exploring different things.

real drug-use years
When I started acting in the film industry when I was 16 years old, in 1980, I was going to all the revival theaters in Los Angeles. They were playing mostly films from the '60s and '70s, some from the early '20s and '30s, before that Hays commission. Those films did question things a lot, and there definitely was a switch in 1934. You can see very distinctly in 1934, it's harder to understand what the real culture was. Films made before 1934, you can really kind of see the racism, sexism, drug use, etc. that was going on at that time. And then it was all stopped.
