Charlie Sheen

tired you know and i drive all the way down to long beach i meet john hughes in the parking lot and i'm expecting him to say great okay so we're gonna go over here and we're gonna put you on tape we'll get back to you like normal yeah yeah and he's on the move he's like i describe in the book a man with a full plate and no time to eat right and so i start walking with him

And he's got a couple assistants with him.

He's super busy in the middle of a complicated day.

Shakes my hand, takes me in for two seconds.

Ah, kid, you look great.

We'll see you next week.

You look great.

We'll see you next week.

You look great.

And I stop and I just kind of watch him walk away.

Right.

It's a rush.

It's probably all things.

It's a whoa moment, but it's also a, God, if he had at least seen me read it and it was wrong, then at least I got a place to work from.

He had no idea I was going to play this thing.

I know.

I mean, they wrote about you in the reviews saying you were smoldering.

It's just so strange.

Then, okay, so in that week, it's all in the doc and the book, dad and I go down to take part in a TV show.

Actors Against Athletes, and the card we drew was Michael Jordan.
