Is it really selling out if it feeds your family?

Our thoughts and prayers are with Fred Hoiberg and his family and his children, because there's not a finer human being around than Fred Hoiberg. But hey, we've got to make adjustments, and we've got some good players who will hopefully come in and fill the void.

Your children don't have to fear you to respect you.

Encourage your kids' artistic side. Toughen up everything else.

I probably made a few pictures I shouldn't have done, but I have four sons and I have to pay the rent. If you have a decision to make about whether or not you can buy groceries at the market or whether or not you're going to make a bad movie, you're going to make a bad movie.

Well, I don't necessarily like playing the villain. I'd much rather be the guy who rides off into the sunset over the hill after saving the people in the town from the bad guys. I'd like to make a picture like Roman Holiday . I'd like to do a remake of Shane , you know? But unfortunately I'm not really looked upon that way by the powers that make movies. I have to put a roof over my children's head, and I have to take a job where I can get it. Every once in a while I get something like this, that even though it's a villain, at least it's well-written. At least it's going to be well-made. It's a lot easier to swallow that when you know that it's going to be well-made. There's nothing worse than playing a villain in a bad movie. Being a bad guy in a bad movie is a major drag. I mean, it's 'Oh, my. God! [Laughs] It's just lonely.
