When the movie Reversal of Fortune was offered to me, I thought it was a very tasteless idea because most of the family was still alive and had been through a very difficult, awful time.
And I thought to have a film made about that is a nightmare.
So I passed on it a few times and then my friend Glenn Close persuaded me, she said quite rightly, if I didn't do it, someone else would.
This is great.
Thank you, my co-stars, Ron Silver and Glenn, for finally persuading me to do it.
And lastly, if I may cut the call of a telephone to London,
where my wife is trying to keep awake in a hotel bedroom, I wish you were here to help me carry this, because you helped me win it.
Thank you all.
Could a father not marry his son?
Well, there are laws against incest.
It's not incest between men.
Incest is there to protect us from having
in breeding.
But men don't breed, so incest wouldn't cover them.
Now, if that was so, then if I wanted to pass on my estate without death duties, I could marry my son and pass on my estate to him.
