It's a difficult thing to say, but I believe it: I consider my entire movie career a complete failure... I'll tell you why. The goal of movie making is to star in a film where your performance drives the film, and the film is either a soaring critical or commercial success, and I never had that.

I got older. The industry now-and it's been this way for a while- is largely about young people, sometimes very young people. Kids in movies have all kinds of marketing potential. Then it's the actors of the Zach Braff/Jessica Alba stripe, the 30-and-under people. But if you look at the number of films that star people over 40, there seem to be a lot less of them now. So the issue is competing to get good roles in these things.
