I wanted to be in 'The Emerald Forest.' I chased that one for six months before it all came about. I wanted to work with John Boorman!

When I'm out there, it's just me. Nobody's controlling me, and I can do whatever I want to do. I'm my own man.

When I'm out there, it's just me. Nobody's controlling me, and I can do whatever I want to do. I'm my own man.

Sometimes, I feel like directors look at me and say, 'I want to put that boy in the jungle. I want to hurt him.'

I like to think of myself as fairly intellectual.

I've always wanted to play a hard-boiled gumshoe, as they say.

Before I accept a job, I always talk to folks about it. 'Why does he kill these 22 people?' If they say, 'What difference does it make?' I know we have nothing more to talk about. A character has to be three-dimensional.

I come prepared when I come to work. Not just knowing the lines, but I think I know something about what I do.

I'm not going to make my living out of beating my head against somebody else.

I was raised a Democrat, and now I'm an Independent.
