«Ed Harris and I first worked together in New York on Sam Shepard's play, Simpatico. Harris was never boring, which made working with him a blast. I never knew when he'd lunge across the stage and say his lines an inch from my nose, or get tickled and go upstage with his back to the audience so they couldn't see him laughing.»
«It is a satire of the first family, so I certainly studied her.»
