I had come to the point when I realized it was unlikely that my film career was going to move beyond a certain level of role.

Wouldn't it be grand if we thought that theater could have that impact on the political life of a country? ↗

But I'll tell you something: We had a big family discussion about it recently, my two sisters and I, and I pointed out that we all have the same genes as our mother and we're all susceptible to becoming alcoholics. ↗

I'm 42 now, what I would consider prime time. ↗
