No, that's too much.
I don't think I need to do that.
Let's pretend.
You know, it's like when you're a kid, I'm going to pretend to be this.
But as soon as your mother calls you to go for dinner, you've got to stop pretending to do that and leave.
Well, you do your best to kill within a fool you are and what you can do.
You know what I mean?
So I think you reach a point where you say to yourself, look, if they think I can do it and they're sending me a check, I'll give it a shot, you know.
Brought them two together, I think, together.
Chevy and, or not Chevy, but Steve and Martin Short.
That started, I think, that...
that kind of why you brought them together no no I'm saying that movie I think that was the thing that kind of started that relation them doing that movie together because you see them you know just on Saturday night I mean those guys are so they're like joined at the hip and that was I think that was the beginning of it yeah
And when I talk to young students and stuff, when I ask questions like that, the point I try to make, too, is this.
You pay your dues in this business one way or another.
So you're either going to pay them on the front end or you're paying them on the back end.
I paid mine on the front end.
Those 15 years that I kind of got to that point where all of a sudden, oh, so that did prepare me for those moments, things like that.
Like Godfather III, where my first line I have to say to Al Pacino or Francis Coppola standing there thinking, oh, my God, this is the cop-out.
You know, but yet some people right out of the box is like they get some major thing and now they're like, boom, just catapulted to stardom.
It's not like they're going to avoid paying their dues.
