“I've always been in the middle of making my own movies, so taking acting jobs that take me away from that has been impossible.”

Listen, there are some movies that are set in stone and the writer or the director does not want to change, but I've never worked on a movie, including my own, that didn't take advantage of a rehearsal process.
I've been to many funerals of funny people, and they're some of the funniest days you'll ever have, because the emotions run high.
I like movies about failing.
By the way, movies are like sporting events in that you're as good as the movie you're in. You can sit in a room for 20 years and go do a movie and you can just kill in it and you move to the head of the line again. By the same token, you can do five movies a year and if they're dreck, it's nothing.
