Quotes
- "Two of my favorite movies are The Misfits and All The President's Men. Man, there's a lot of testosterone in those two films. I pick Misfits because you rarely get to hear lines like when Marilyn Monroe asks Gable how they're going to get home and he answers: 'Just head for that big star straight on...It'll take us right home.' And President's Men because of when Hoffman lights up in an elevator and Redford says to him, 'Do you smoke everywhere?"
