You know when Hollywood does a great big blockbuster that really wraps you up in a world and lets you believe in extraordinary things that move you in some way in an almost operatic sensibility? That to me is the most fun I have at the movies.
My interest in film is sort of catholic - apart from science fiction and horror movies I'll watch almost everything.
I've never really broken this down before but in movies you almost have no connection to fans. And if you do TV you're kind of connected but they know you as the TV name not your real name. If you do radio there's more of a bond there. And then if you do a podcast it's like you're literally inside of your fans.
When we talk about Oscars it's almost as a symbol of excellence and the American public and the worldwide public accept that symbol. So a movie like 'The Artist' that costs $14 million has to go out and compete with movies that cost $140 million. How does David deal with Goliath?
In Rio Bravo when Duke makes love to Feathers the scene dissolves to the next morning where we see him putting on his vest and almost humming. It was subtle but you knew what happened. Give me a towel and some blankets any day!

I had three children while doing a show as demanding as 'Good Morning America ' so this is - you know it's almost like I'm less daunted about motherhood and parenting at this point in time. And I think I'm just much more fit and healthy than I was 20-years-ago.
My life had become a catastrophe. I had no idea how to turn it around. My band had broken up. I had almost lost my family. My whole life had devolved into a disaster. I believe that the police officer who stopped me at three a.m. that morning saved my life.
After all those years as a woman hearing 'not thin enough not pretty enough not smart enough not this enough not that enough ' almost overnight I woke up one morning and thought 'I'm enough.'
Because I don't take money I'll go anywhere and do a benefit concert with almost any orchestra.
I went to the bank and proposed that they lend money to the poor people. The bankers almost fell over.
Money again has often been a cause of the delusion of the multitudes. Sober nations have all at once become desperate gamblers and risked almost their existence upon the turn of a piece of paper.
Banks are an almost irresistible attraction for that element of our society which seeks unearned money.
Almost the only persons who may be said to comprehend even approximately the significance principles and purposes of Socialism are the chief leaders of the extreme wings of the Socialistic forces and perhaps a few of the money kings themselves.
