“You try to do your best at what you're getting paid for.” — Sean Penn

When I was growing up and somebody like Robert De Niro had a movie come out, it was a cultural event. Because he had such a confidence and a single mission that was so intimate.

In my teens, I fell in love with the movies.

I am a limousine liberal.

I just want real creative freedom without worrying about, you know, car payments.
