In life, single women are the most vulnerable adults. In movies, they are given imaginary power.

I still like the run and gun action movies and how truly dangerous it can be to make these films.

When I was a little boy I used to borrow my father's hat, and make a press card to stick in the hat band. That was the way reporters were always portrayed in the movies.

Frankly, I got into the movies because I like the movies a lot.

I really don't have favorites I'm just a fan of movies, period.

Hollywood is throwing action movies at me.

I had done some flimflam movies, but I didn't understand what being an actor meant anymore.

Before 'Schindler's List,' I wouldn't have believed movies had a lot of power for social change.

A lot of the struggle I had with movies is I really loved moments and tones and feelings in a scene, and I loved creating those, but I never really had great stories to string them together.

You take somebody that cries their goddam eyes out over phoney stuff in the movies, and nine times out of ten they're mean bastards at heart.
