Biography, like big game hunting, is one of the recognized forms of sport, and it is as unfair as only sport can be.
Row after row with strict impunity The headstones yield their names to the element, The wind whirrs without recollection.
Peering, I heard the hooves come down the hill. The posse passed, twelve horse; the leader's face Was worn as limestone on an ancient sill.
My darling boy whom I shall never know, My son, I love you in my deepest fears.
For often at Church I've seen the stained high glass Pour out the Virgin and Saints, twist and untwist The mortal youth of Christ astride an ass.
Death's long anabasis.
Men cannot live forever But they must die forever.
It doesn't matter who you were or what you've done in the past. The only thing that matters is who you are right now.

I've been fortunate to work with good directors who understand improvisation and understand the way comedians work. Luke Basan let me do my thing like do what you feel and take the character to another level. Quentin Tarrantino was more of an acting coach.
