[on his role in Bulworth (1998)] That was a lot of fun. It was kind of a movie-making highlight for me, because Mr. Beatty invited me into his process in a very personal way. He was Warren Beatty, you know what I mean? I grew up watching his movies. It was a thrill. It was a lot of late nights and craziness, but I’m very glad to be in the movie. I love the role, and I love the movie.

My background is very conventional WASP, but because of my coloring… I don’t look like a WASP.
