he's got my respect


"I don't think actors should have to do anything but come in and act. I feel the film companies should pay for proper advertising to see that the movie will sell, instead of putting it on our backs. I've tried to narrow the contractual language, which requires a 'fair and reasonable' amount of publicity. I've said in negotiations; 'How much will you pay me not to have to promote?'

From one actor to another he's earned my respect he's truly dedicated to just being and actor and not just a salesman.

Only when society changes will the culture change "

Makes perfect sense. Too bad that won't happen, but very good of him to say.
