In the the late seventies and early eighties, I played background roles in thirty movies... Woody Allen movies, Scorsese films, you name it.

I’m very happy to be a part of a very successful piece of art, as the ‘Saw’ films have been. One gets into this to participate. It’s the coming together of a good story.

When I was growing up in the mid- 50s, the Roaring Twenties were a huge part of the culture. There were a number of films and a bunch of television shows that dealt with the mythology of the underworld from that period Picture Quote #1
