You make a movie, and if somebody reads something into it, then great, more power to him.

When I was born, the economy wasn't in a great state; it was the Depression, and my father had to be quick to try and find work.

'Mystic River' just smelled interesting to me. So I read it and liked it right away. Even the dialogue in it was great.

Governor Romney has a great business background. He is extremely well educated. He has several degrees from Harvard, including, you know, business and including a law degree.

I liked Vittorio De Sica a lot, and I got to work with him once in a segment movie. He was a great director. He was a very charismatic character and a guy I watched a lot when he was directing.

When I did 'Bird,' it was a surprise to some people, first because I wasn't in it and second because most of the films I'd been doing were cop movies or westerns or adventure films, so to be doing one about Charlie Parker, who was a great influence on American music, was a great thrill for me.

I guess a great movie would be one that has the most great moments in it.

I want the troops from Great Britain and the U.S. to be successful, but by the same token, Afghanistan has always been a screw-up.

I just thought, 'Yeah, this gal would be great, if we can get her trained up, if we can get a little bit more bulk on her, to make her look like a fighter,' ... She was like a feather. But what happened is, she had this great work ethic.
