voice toys stories
I'd love to be a voice in 'Toy Story 4.'
goodbye love-you people
I'm always shy when I meet people I admire so I wouldn't be able to say anything rather than, 'How do you do? Love you! Bye!'
brother crazy people
I'm crazy about the Coen brothers, I'm crazy about Sean Penn. I love the usual suspects like Susan Sarandon, Meryl Streep and people like that.
feet five
I'm under five feet; I'm very small, 4'11 1/2.
delight function shock
It's one of the functions of the theater to shock and titillate and appall, apart from entertain and delight.
awards
I love getting presents. And awards. I'd do whatever they told me to do.
jobs challenges new-job
The thing about being an actor is that every new job is a new challenge. Sometimes you'll have a shot, and it doesn't work. Sometimes it'll work better than you expected.
daughter running law
Well, let's say Asian. Some are Japanese. Some are Chinese. Some are Thai. Some are Vietnamese. He runs the gamut. And I actually happen to have a very dear daughter-in-law who's Japanese. I don't know what she's going to make of the film, but I say a few disparaging things.
brother brilliant coen-brothers
Everything the Coen brothers do is brilliant.
sex believe effort
I believe in sex on a first date. Otherwise, how do you know if a second date is worth the effort?
australia hollywood
I do have friends in Australia who now refer to me as 'Hollywood Jack.'
best-effort imagination actors
I guess just a lively imagination is the best effort an actor can have.
beads sequins bits
I love a bit of a sequin and a bead. I do, even though I usually wear trousers, when I put a frock on. I like a bead or a sequin.
twilight adventure opportunity
It wasn't on my agenda, but the thing about getting important awards is it makes the adventure of your career have a little more possibility. I think just what's happened so far is already making the opportunities more interesting, even though I'm at the twilight of my career of like 48 years.
