I don't like directors that just say, Stand there and now do this.

The Moguls is a story about guys that have all grown up together and are now in their late 40s, early 50s.

When I got the script for Memento, I read it and I got killed off on page one and I fired my agent.

I wanted to play a good guy after doing this lunatic on The Sopranos for two years. And then they did the sequel to Bad Boys, where I get to play the barking captain again.
