Personal Quote:

"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?' See more »

Trivia:

Won Outer Critics Circle award for outstanding newcomer for his work on the New York stage-Arcadia and Bus Stop. See more »
