rain rabbits roommate
I drove around in a Volkswagen Rabbit I shared with one of my roommates, and it didn't have a roof. It doesn't rain much in L.A., but when it did, it was utterly miserable.
leader actors center-of-attention
It's definitely nerve-racking to be the center of attention. I'm not the kind of an actor that just craves attention 24-7 - but it's part of the deal. You're the leader on the set
kids thinking pet
I think pets are great. They're better than kids, that's for sure.
gay superhero
I'm not gay, and I'm not a superhero
cheater cheated
I'm not a cheater. I've never cheated in my life
breathing differences television
The difference between directing film and directing television is so stark simply because TV is a living breathing organism already when you direct an episode.
television stuff fans
I've always been a fan of advertising, I've always been a fan of television, I've loved commercials, I've loved all the jingles, I loved all the stuff
children kids thinking
I don't necessarily want kids. A lot of our friends are having children and I don't know if it's for me. I haven't come down hardcore on either side of the argument. I think when people come from a stable family having children becomes a celebration and I'm not sure it would be that way for me.
sexy dad thinking
Point me to 50 people online who think I'm super sexy. I'll point you to 50 more who say he's old and looks like my dad.
paris stupidity kim
Whether it's Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian or whoever, stupidity is certainly celebrated.
teacher thinking acting
I got into acting because my teachers kept nudging me into it. The power a teacher has to influence someone is so great. I can't think of a profession I have more respect for.
powerful book kids
Men ruled the roost and women played a subservient role [in the 1960s]. Working wives were a rarity, because their place was in the home, bringing up the kids. The women who did work were treated as second-class citizens because it was a male-dominated society. That was a fact of life then. But it wouldn't be tolerated today, and that's quite right in my book... people look back on those days through a thick veil of nostalgia, but life was hard if you were anything other than a rich, powerful, white male.
roles film calculus
I don't have any sort of calculus in choosing film roles.
beautiful kids creative
I wouldn't know anything about opera music if it wasn't for Bugs Bunny. That was my entire introduction to opera music. I wouldn't know anything about classical music if it wasn't for "Fantasia." They didn't have to do that stuff. They chose to base this ridiculous, funny, intriguing, creative story on this beautiful classical music. It's the combination of the high and the low that I thought was very cool. But I had no concept of it as a kid.
