We kiss and hug our kids a lot! And even now when our son lives 3,000 miles away, we talk every day, sometimes several times.
As an actor, I look for the part itself. I look for the story and the role. If there's no money, but it's a good part in a good role, I'll still consider it. Basically, the worse the role is, the worse the story is, and the more they'll have to pay me. It's a simple correlation.
