That's why so many stars are making pictures in Europe today. The tax guys are making thieves out of everybody.

Most film productions, when they're based at a place, they get, like, a 30-mile radius or a 30-minute radius to get out of the town.

It wasn't until I stood in my truth and told everybody that I had $250,000 in credit card debt. At that point, everything turned around for me. I had to reveal the truth about what I didn't have, more than pretend about what I did. That was interesting.
