No, I still worry. Um, after shameless, I thought I would be in some form of retirement, but turns out That was not satisfying. Also, it turns out I'm not as rich as I thought I was. How'd you find that out? The pills. No, I want to work. And... I worry about it less because it doesn't help. And John Burnham is my manager and he's magnificent and he keeps coming up with stuff.

I just did a film called Train Dreams, which is really good. It sold for a whole bunch of money at Sundance. That's going to be in, I guess, theaters soon. That was a really sweet film. And I've got my hand in. I seem to be the king of, we only need you for two days. but one of the problems is they think, Oh, he's so good. It's three days worth of work. He can do it in two days.

And I keep saying, I'll take the money, but can I have an extra day? Um, so I've done a bunch of films where they're, they pack in these scenes and they're, they're, it's a good role and it's changes the plot, but, um, The worst day on a film is the first day because you're lost. You don't know anybody.

And a lot of times they've been shooting all along and it's a family that you're not a member of. And the next bad day on a set is the last day because it's sad and it's you're hoping you did well. And that's all I do is the bad days, the first and the last day.

I guess so. As long as there are roles that blow up my skirt a little bit, I'll do it. I'm still upright and I can still remember the lines. So I see no reason to stop.

I don't know if I expected it, but I wished it and I had faith. I had faith. I'm a serendipitous. And there are some interesting roles out there for people of a certain age. It's good. I like to joke that. one of the good things about getting old is when I hear the idiotic things, my young friends say, it just makes me, but it's, it's nice. I'm, I'm in a good position. I'm on every set.

I'm usually the oldest guy now, but I'm the, the ominous grease, you know, the old gray hair guy. And, um, so I get listened to and great respect. And, um, I have gotten better at it, and so I feel like I'm doing some pretty good work.
