It's A Profession Where Merit Is Not

When I Was In College, All The Pretty Women Were In The Theatre, So I Auditioned For A Play.

I Am Very Grateful To Make My Living Doing What I Would Do For Free.

I Would Go To Trials A Lot In Boston, As Best I Could. And It's Incredible That, Like, Lawyers That Had A Good Case Weren't Dramatic At All. Lawyers That Had A Horrible Case Would Sing And Dance And Do Whatever It Took To Convince The Jury Or The Judge That This Guy Was Innocent. So That Was A Cool Thing To See Because That Made Me Believe That What The Script [of From The Hip] Was Doing Was Totally Believable. Now, Maybe Not Ordinary. But It Could Happen.

All Of The Directors I've Worked With I Have Loved And Would Work With Again. I Have No Favorites.

[john] Hughes Is A Great Loss, I Think. He Was The First Filmmaker That Could Look At Someone Who Was Young Without Seeing Them As Being Less.
