The Physical Stamina [in Revolution]. I Was Just Shocked By It. I Didn't Think I Had It In Me Ever, And I Wasn't Terribly Young When I Did It. I Was In My Early Forties. That Was The First Thing I Was Struck By, Not By The Acting, Not By Anything Else, But By The Physicality.

I Don't Like What's Going On In Iraq, Naturally. I'm Part Of A Large Majority Of People Who Don't, But I Do Not Know The Whole Story. I Do Not Believe What I See On Television. I Believe A Percentage Of It, So It's Hard For Me To Discern. I Don't Like What It's Doing To The World.
