Maybe I've lost a little, but I think everyone does over time. People have been writing that I'm getting old every year, and eventually they're going to be right. There's nobody in this game that's doing the same things they once did in the peak years of their career. ↗

I want to photograph what I see and put it in a dramatic context. I'm an actor and a writer, and I want to tell these stories and present these shapes, colors and movements as I see them, as I see them serve a narrative. As I see that narrative serve an audience. That's what I want to do. ↗

Nobody can write the life of a man but those who have eat and drunk and lived in social intercourse with him. ↗

I wanted to write it long before I wrote Every Night, Josephine! I'd been thinking about it a long time. ↗

Whatever I write, no matter how gray or dark the subject matter, it's still going to be a comic novel. ↗
