When I worked as a prosecutor in Richmond, Virginia in the 1990s, that city, like so much of America, was experiencing horrific levels of violent crime.

Oh, breakfast is my favorite thing in the world. I always eat a big breakfast. It's the most important meal of the day, and I need energy.
Your choices are very important. The only thing you have as actors are your choices: the option to say no to something. You don't want to take on a really bad job and be terrible in something - especially in film, because if you're bad in it, you're bad in it forever.

Being the vice-captain, you see a lot of things on the field. You have to try and help the captain as much as you can and lead by example on the field.

The music alone wasn't enough. It was great, but when an artist had an amazing look - like the MC5, or the Stooges, or Alice Cooper - you really got sucked in. The wardrobe was so important.
