"Rosencrantz was more fun than a barrel full of actors. Gave me a chance to do something I’d never done before, which was great."

Once Around (1990)
Once Around (1990)
1990 | Comedy, Drama, Romance

"Once Around is a beautiful movie. And it was funny, and it was moving, and it was great. The story itself, which is a true story, is such a remarkable — simple, but not simple — story about a woman who falls in love with a guy who is kind of socially unacceptable. He’s loud, and her family just thinks he’s chalk on a blackboard. It’s how they come to love him. Holly Hunter is fantastic. It’s actually quite a brilliant movie, and I’ve always been extremely proud of it."

"Not only did I love it but, as we made the film… We had about a thousand extras. We had to have the use of a thousand people to be various crowds and parents and whatever. And they all — including the crew — all fell in love with that movie. There are many times — not just the last scenes — but there are many times when we did scenes again and again just because they were fun to do. When I say fun, I mean moving — there were more tears wept in the making of the film just because we wanted to, just because it was fun to do. And no film ever bonded [people] like that film. Usually the crew goes one place, and the cast goes another, and the extras go another. And in that film, we all went out together, sang karaoke together. We had a great time."

"Moon Over Parador — on a scale of one of ten, it’s like an eight and a half. It’s something that you can really… If you just see it from the beginning, you’re captured, you’re hooked."

"I watched Let It Ride, which was spoiled by the fact that the director did not know how important it was to keep the eye-lines correct. So everyone in the movie seems to be doing a Harold Lloyd imitation, and we’re slightly goofy because we’re not quite looking at the right spot. But other than that, it’s hysterically funny, so I would include that."
