foxes directors done
When you're not gaping at Megan Fox enough to listen to what the director's saying, you can get some work done.
interesting directors wonderful
Steve Zaillian is just the sweetest. A very, very wonderful and interesting director.
jesus doors lunch
We walked out of this library building downtown, just on our way to lunch, and I was walking a few steps behind Travolta, and when he opened the door, it was as if Jesus had just walked out into the commons.
tables next six
I sat next to Robert Duvall at the lawyers' table for six weeks, and it's still probably the best six weeks of my life.
upset shooting crystals
I couldn't stop to be upset or depressed about anything when I was at Tiger Stadium with Billy Crystal shooting for three weeks. I was going to enjoy every second - even though apparently I didn't.
intimidation percent
Intimidation is 99 percent in the intimidatee's head.
smart guy serious
Hugh Laurie was intimidating, but he's the greatest guy. He's so wonderful and smart and funny and serious, and he sets the bar high. So if I was scared, it's because I wasn't measuring up.
play doctors lawyer
I don't usually get to play somebody who is, at least, nominally in charge. I'm usually playing somebody's lawyer or a doctor.
writing tired years
You never get tired of making money, and you never get tired of a great acting gig, a same role that you can play for years, with wonderful writing and wonderful actors.
hands actors
Why things get canceled or not is so unbelievably out of actors' hands that it's one of those things where you've just got to ride with it.
daughter character men
People would stop me in the street - my demographic tends to be the elderly Jewish women from Miami; I think they tend to fancy me as someone that would've been good with their daughter or something - and a lot of them will do the wrist-slapping thing. "Oh, you're a terrible man! Just terrible!" And I'm, like, "Well, it's just a show. I'm just playing a character."
fun real guy
I was spending three days literally just kibitzing with Jack Nicholson at a table! It was heaven! And talk about a normal guy. My God, he was just so real and cool and relaxed and fun. And he was a great performer. He's such an actor. He really was so focused on every moment. It was great.
years shows five-years
When you're on a show for five years, everyone becomes friends. It's great.
fun play able
Being able to play a role where you're there almost every day and you're just in it... I remember it was a whirlwind, but it was a lot of fun.
