What I Really Want To Do Is

When You Make A Film You Usually Make A Film About An Idea.

I Personally Have Never Made A Movie In Hollywood, Because I Don't Want To Get Up In My Own Bed And Then Go To The Movie Set, And Then Come Home At Night To My Real Life.

I Love Having Made A Film And Watching It When It Affects Audiences In A Positive Way. It Was Always Fun For Me To Hide In The Back Of A Theater And Watch Tootsie With An Audience And Hear Them Laugh. And It's Gratifying 20 Years Later To Imagine That They Still Can Find It Amusing.

I Have One Life. I Am A Certain Age. I'm Married To One Person. I Have A Certain Number Of Children. I Won't Have Another Life Other Than That, But I Do Have Many Lives Through The Films.

Hollywood Was Set Up By A Bunch Of Businessmen. They Do Not See Their Job As Being Philanthropists. I Don't Think It's A Contradiction In Terms To Attempt To Be A Good Businessman And To Also Be Liberal.
