James Caan Told Me At The End

I've Always Wanted To Sail Around The World In A Handmade Boat. And I Built A Boat. I Had A Boat Built For Me, I Mean, And My Second Day Out To Sea I Realized That (a) I'm Not A Sailor, And (b) I Have No Knowledge Of Basic Navigation.

I Never Put Too Much Pressure On Myself When I'm The Central Thing, Just Because I Don't Think I Could Handle It Mentally. I Haven't Really Thought About The Implications Of Carrying A Movie. It Still Has To Be Just A Fun, Weird Thing.

I Love Watching People Be Totally Committed In A Very Real Way To Stupid Situations. I Find It's Not So Much Trying To Be Funny, It's Trying To Be Real In A Messed Up Context. That's Comedy To Me.

On The Set Of An Independent Film You Can Tell That Nobody Is Doing It For The Money. Everyone Is There Because They Love The Script. A Smaller Budget Sort Of Unifies Everyone; It's A Real Team Effort And That's Amazing. But These Opportunities Just Don't Present Themselves That Often For Me, So Basically Any Chance I Get To Do Something Different I Jump On It.

You Have To Listen A Lot, And You Have To Be Open And Ready To Adjust To Anything. It Kind Of Provides A Framework That You Use All The Time. You Never Really Shut Off That Part Of Your Brain When You're Doing Something. It's Invaluable To Have.
