Caltech was a meat grinder like I could never have imagined.
Grit is living life like it's a marathon, not a sprint.
I like the gritty parts of fashion, the design, the studio, the pictures.
I make movies on gritty topics like crime, the underworld, and horror. I don't make movies with good-looking people in good-looking locales.
I like to work when I'm not working - do something that may not be considered work, but to me it's work. Getting exercise by going to the grocery store.
I've managed to do movies and still keep a lifestyle where I can go to ballgames, go to a grocery store like everybody else.
It's not like it's hard to be decent and respectful and well-behaved. I do wait in line, and I do take the subway, and I do do my own grocery shopping, and I do take the kids to school.
I've learned to look like I'm listening to long confusing plots of cartoons and comic books when I'm actually sound asleep or making grocery shopping lists in my head.
Just like Barack Obama, my views on gay marriage have evolved, and now I am a reluctant groom.
I like to combine the dramatic emotional warmth of strings with the grooves and body business of drums and bass.
I do seem to like to combine the dramatic emotional warmth of strings with the grooves and body business of drums and bass.
I played in Velvet Revolver, which is a raw, bombastic blues band with a punk rock edge to it. It's like everything is based around the blues, no matter what the groove is.
I wear Blundstones for hiking. They're like a work boot with a bit of grip, so you can wear them all day. They're quite groovy.
I find beauty in the grotesque, like most artists.
My heroes, growing up, were people like Andy Kaufman and Groucho Marx and people that very rarely drop the persona.
The real achievement of Woody Allen was that he was making movies that felt very personal, and for a whole group of people, it spoke to them. Then he became an archetype, like Groucho Marx or Chaplin.
Huntington Beach is like ground zero for surfers.
Thanks to many great K-pop singers, the groundwork has been laid for more Korean songs to be readily accessible to an overseas audience via channels like YouTube.
This is a group effort. This is group theatre. This is no big star turn. You could do things with it to do that but it would just be out of kilter. This is one reason I like this play. This is a unit.
I'm turned off by the groupie thing. I'm a romantic; I like finding the right woman, and if it works, it works.
