I believe that the story is the most important element of any medium whether it’s theater, film, TV.

Hilary and Bob and I have played (charades) on our own with friends, and we always end up having a bonding experience and learning something about the people who play. We were talking about it at dinner one night and thought it would make for so much of the comedy and conflict that Hollywood writers are dying to capture.

Because when you do something it's kind of an endorsement of it. When you sign on as an actor it's endorsing it.

Any incentive would have been incentive for me to make the film here.

Oh absolutely. I had the pleasure to get to know a lot of really talented young actors before they even really hit it big. And yet what we all had and shared in common was a love for movies.

There is really nothing quite like that experience as an actor to be up on the stage.

I believe that the story is the most important element of any medium whether it's theater, film, TV.

Actually, every time I am back in New York, I read for as many plays as I can.

I think every actor should go back and do theater periodically.

So ultimately I am looking for a story that has some value and is important and is entertaining.
