 For some reason, his pool-hall education gets far more ink than his master's degree. And most important, he's part of a hardworking showbiz tradition that doesn't make films, it makes ''pictures. |
| I never heard that before in my life. I loved it so much even though I was supposed to be mad at him. You see the look in my face, which is so delighted. |
| For my money, Patrick McGoohan is the quintessential Columbo adversary. |
| He sent the script over and I read it that first night, and about page 45 or 50, I called him up and said I'd do it. I didn't even finish it. You look for a part that you can score in. If I like this character and I can play it, the people are going to laugh or be interested, that's what you look for. They send me things that I wonder why they would send to anybody. |
| I saw a picture in the newspaper ? it was the art newspaper out of London ? of a young man on a ladder painting over the largest mural of the face of Saddam in Baghdad. |
| I think Morris has a fantastic zest for life. He's hit upon something, and that is this central question: 'I'm full of life now, but what do I see in the future? A slow, steady disintegration into paralysis. Do I go out while I'm on top, or do I want to hang around, inch by inch, watching myself decay and have my family watch me decay?' He approaches this subject with tremendous humor, and he's never depressing -- he's always way ahead of everybody else, and full of life. He's a fantastic character. |
| I've been able to play one of the richest characters in the history of television. Why would anybody think that I would be tired of hearing about it? The only thing I could say is that I feel like I'm the luckiest guy on the face of the globe, |
| If people asked me whether I'm annoyed or tired or whatever adjective they use about being typecast, I look at them like they're crazy, |
| It should be somehow special. |
| It was automatic. We were always on the same wavelength even before we started shooting. |
| It wasn't that we improvised it. We were going to shoot it, but I had the props in my hand, and I wanted to understand the props before we shot, so I asked Paul 'Is this the hook?' and 'Where do you put the worm?' that's when the director just said 'Shoot these guys!' I didn't even know the camera was on, but it felt good! |

' The person who reads the script -- they don't give a s--- about that, ... What does he care? What does an actor care about when he reads a script? He cares about whether he can score or not. He cares about whether or not the audience is going to identify with him or whether they're going to laugh or be compelled by the story. The reason I said yes is because I enjoyed it. |
| Paul never told me anything about why he wrote it -- he never mentioned his father and he never mentioned my father, ... He never put me in a position in which I would feel a lot of external pressure other than wanting my reaction to the script. That's the way I would do it. That's the way I know a real professional would do it. That's the proper to do it. |
| Sometimes I see my father in me, |
