“I love that film. It was for me a whole new film when I saw that for the first time. This was so new, this improvising and a bit gritty, and I really love that.”

“I can't think of anything more fun than the clash of acting styles that go on in this. Everybody is fighting for territory. You can almost, if you listen closely, hear John Cassavetes' maniacal cackle watching these guys go nose to nose, tear duct to tear duct with each other.”
