 »And sometimes I go a long time without working, though I’ve been doing HBO stuff, Spector, Kevorkian.

 »I feel sometimes like I do what my life dictates. That’s kinda what I’ve been doing. And hopefully, you go with the flow. If something is there and you feel it — I can’t say some of these projects that are out there — but I want to do films that develop. »

The ‘Humbling’ actor recently took his youngest children to see blockbuster movie ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ and was very impressed by the film.

He told New York magazine:  »I thought the ‘Galaxy’ thing was a very interesting movie. In its genre, it was done very well. I saw it with my little kids, and they liked it and I liked it. I thought it was inventive and funny and dark at times.

 »I thought, ‘Gee, it’s a big movie’ and you saw it in a big screen with sound, and it was, I thought, well produced, well directed acted. I was happy sitting there. »
