Hal Holbrook was in one of my first television movies when I was about 18 or 19. He'd made such a strong impression on me and a lasting one in terms of what being an actor was.
I think it's much more important to direct movies but if it's going to take five years between each one then I'll have to make up for that.
In my teens, I fell in love with the movies.
I choose movies that I think will speak to what's important.
I can make a better living as an actor than I can as a director. Though I certainly would prefer to be directing movies.
