GQ puts Mark Ruffalo through his paces, as he answers one question for every movie he’s done. A decorated career initially characterized by a transition from theater to indie films, Ruffalo catapulted himself into the spotlight after his captivating performance in Kenneth Lonergan’s noughties drama You Can Count On Me.Years later, the American actor is ranked as one of the highest-grossing actors of all-time, with major contributions from Marvel’s The Avengers film series, the Now You See Me trilogy and Shutter Island to name a few.Ubiquitously known as the Hulk, Mark’s career reflects his on-screen alter ego in both strength and longevity in equal measures. Here, Mark deep dives into his near four-decade long body of work on the big screen.Credits:Director: Camille RamosDirector of Photography: Brad WickhamEditor: Graham MooneyTalent: Mark RuffaloSenior Producer: Michael BeckertLine Producer: Jen SantosProduction Manager: James Pipitone; Elizabeth HymesTalent Booker: Lauren MendozaCamera Operator: Carlos Araujo; Chloe RamosGaffer: Niklas MollerSound Mixer: Rebecca O'NeillProduction Assistant: Ryan CoppolaPost Production Supervisor: Jess DunnSupervising Editor: Rob LombardiAssistant Editor: Andy Morell

00:00Do you think any of the detectives you've played could have solved the Zodiac case?
00:04Mike Resende, he's probably. I mean, he's not a detective,
00:07although it's a very fine line between a journalist and a detective.
00:10But if anyone could do it, it would be him.
00:14Hey, it's Mark Ruffalo, and today we're going to talk about every single one of my movies. Sorry.
00:25Mickey, 17. How was acting with those teeth?
00:28Uh, weird.
00:31Bong wanted me to eat something and to be doing my scene while I'm eating.
00:35Actually inseminated baby embryos.
00:37You really are the perfect candidate for Niflheim's natural child birthing program, aren't you, dear?
00:42But the teeth, you can't really eat with those teeth.
00:44The teeth are, like, floating around in my mouth while I was trying to do the Z.
00:50And I kept trying to, like, get them back into place.
00:54I would figure out, how do I look like I'm chewing this food without chewing it?
00:59And he kept saying, his note was, you have to be eating.
01:03You really, I need to see you really eating.
01:05They're crazy, those teeth.
01:07They're the whole character, you know?
01:09I've done so much heavy stuff, and I've always tried to, like, do one or the other.
01:15My favorite acting style is one foot on a banana peel and, you know, they're in a grave.
01:20That there's always some sense of humor in it, even with task.
01:25You know, I was trying to find places where we can make even that story funny.
01:31But I just haven't gotten to do a lot of it, and it's something that I, you know, I came up in the theater.
01:36You were never relegated to one or the other.
01:38We were always jumping between comedy and just haven't had a chance.
01:42And people are more and more are starting to give me that chance, and I'm savoring it.
01:47It's just really fun and freeing.
01:5013 going on 30.
01:51Yeah.
01:52Do you still remember the thriller dance?
01:55Only small parts of it.
01:57I was cast in West Side Story when I first tried to be an actor in high school.
02:02I had to learn some of the dances for that.
02:06This was a lot harder.
02:08You know, I had to rehearse with Jen Gardner.
02:10She learned it in about a half an hour, and it took me, like, six hours to learn it.
02:16Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
02:18How did the pants-off dance-off scene happen?
02:20That movie was crazy because we were constantly improvising.
02:23The cameras were rolling, literally.
02:26The minute you walked on set, there was two or three cameras rolling constantly.
02:30So whether we were rehearsing or we were shooting a scene, Michelle was capturing that.
02:36And there was a lot of improvisation.
02:38I know at one point we were in our underwear.
02:41I can't remember if he instigated it or it just sort of naturally happened.
02:45But at some point, I think he did want us to be up on his bed dancing over him.
02:49It was just a very funny bit.
02:53You don't have to do it.
02:54But Michelle and Charlie together was a really nice combination, I felt like.
02:59He really was able to land that third act, which I think could sometimes be a problem for some of those stories.
03:05I don't know how they ended up in the end.
03:07I don't know if they were friendly with each other.
03:09It was a very intense post-production.
03:13But for us, it was just fun.
03:15We had this incredible script, and we were able to riff within it.
03:19And we had a great director who was leading us through an amazing cast.
03:23It was a lot of fun.
03:24The Avengers.
03:27What was it like seeing yourself as the Hulk for the first time?
03:30Weird.
03:31I didn't see it until the premiere.
03:33And my daughter, who was probably, I don't know, five, was down the road from me.
03:40And I was watching me explode into the Hulk.
03:43And she just looked down at me, and she burst into tears, screaming.
03:49She ran up and jumped in my arms.
03:51She's like, why do you want to hurt the nice lady, Papa?
04:08Don't be the green man.
04:10Don't be the green man.
04:11I mean, listen, I grew up watching that show when Bill Bixby turned into Lou Ferrigno, the Hulk.
04:18When his shirt would rip, I was just like, that is the coolest thing in the world when I was a kid.
04:24So seeing it happen there and me be that character, it was surreal.
04:29It was one of those moments where you're just like, I can't really believe that this is happening.
04:36It was a big moment.
04:38We wrestled a lot.
04:39But Joss's rehearsal with me was that he and I would just wrestle and throw each other around on mats, you know?
04:45It was fun, and it was freeing, and it was goofy.
04:48Avengers Age of Ultron.
04:50Do you ever wish you had a solo Hulk movie?
04:53Yeah, I'd love to have a solo Hulk movie.
04:55I mean, I don't know if you know the whole story of that, but it's not really owned by Marvel.
05:00It's a universal property.
05:02I don't know if it'll ever really come to be, honestly.
05:05We keep talking about it, what it would be.
05:07You know, there's been so many Hulk movies already.
05:10It's like, does anyone really even want another one?
05:13But I'd love one.
05:14And I do think the audiences would be into it if we could crack the nut of it.
05:20Thor Ragnarok.
05:21How was the energy on set with Taika Waititi different from the other Marvel movies you'd done?
05:25That was almost completely improvised.
05:29You know, Taika would show up in a kimono, and he'd have a little tea service over there,
05:35and like a Moroccan rugs and pillows and a pit that we would hang out in.
05:42And he would be playing The Clash or Parliament Funkadelic or just that full blast.
05:50It was just madness, just the most exquisite form of madness.
05:54Why are you being so weird?
05:56I don't know.
05:57Maybe the fact that I was trapped for two years inside of a monster made me a little weird.
06:03It's okay.
06:03And Chris and I are just a really, you know, I think we are a nice duel and play really well off of each other
06:13and know each other, love each other, and trust each other.
06:16It was just a really fun experience.
06:20Like, of all the Marvel movies, that was probably the loosest and the goofiest,
06:24and in a lot of ways the most fun, because it was just a lot, just he and I, you know.
06:31Avengers Infinity War.
06:32How was it getting beat up by Thanos?
06:35It sucked.
06:37I'm in my little, you know, suit, and we go to, you know, we go to what they call a volume,
06:47which is a space that has cameras all over it.
06:50You learn all the choreography, you learn the fight, and then you go in there,
06:54and I wasn't doing it with Josh.
06:58I was doing it with a stuntman.
07:00I had to get beat, and he's never beaten before, so.
07:06But that's how I do it.
07:07My little leotard, that guy's in his little leotard, and we're, you know, throwing each other around
07:15on a black box.
07:19Avengers Endgame.
07:21After over 12 years of playing the Hulk, what's your biggest takeaway?
07:25I'm really grateful that I've had that to do and to keep coming back to.
07:30People are programmed for gods and monsters.
07:33You know, this mythology, you know, and I feel like we've been kind of doing this modern mythology
07:38for 12 years now.
07:40It sort of always is touching on what's happening culturally, mirroring it and sort of informing
07:49it, and that it stays relevant somehow.
07:51It's just been nice to be part of it.
07:55It's just been a huge sort of blessing to me in my life.
08:00And the people that I keep getting to work with are just the best as well.
08:05They're like a lovely family, which just doesn't happen in the film world.
08:09You know, we come together, we move apart, we come together, we move apart.
08:12And this, we just keep coming back together.
08:15And we've always stayed together.
08:19Zodiac, did you discuss on set who you thought the killer might be?
08:23And what was your hunch?
08:24That was a constant conversation between David Fincher and the cast.
08:30Arthur Lee Allen was kind of the person that we all would always keep coming back to just
08:34because we were working from his transcripts.
08:38The, you know, the scenes with him were direct lifts from the transcripts of the police interrogations.
08:45And he was just such a weird character, fit so many of the M.O. of the Zodiac killer.
08:53The movie plays so heavily on it, I think that's the one that we all were like, kept going back to.
09:00Collateral.
09:01How would you describe Michael Mann's process?
09:04It's so intense.
09:06I don't think he ever sleeps.
09:08That was probably the hardest movie I've ever done.
09:11We were shooting nights and Michael's a very hard man to please.
09:15And there's a lot of mano a mano, you know, that testosterone.
09:22That's what's driving that whole thing.
09:25And so it's just a very intense place to be.
09:28He's an intense director.
09:30Great director.
09:33Fox Catcher.
09:34Yeah.
09:34We've heard that Steve Carell was a character the whole time.
09:36How did that make working with him?
09:38Well, I don't have a lot of scenes with him.
09:40I just remember we were suffering immensely while we were shooting that movie.
09:44It was really hard.
09:45It was really cold.
09:46We were in Pittsburgh.
09:47It was just dark and miserable.
09:50And the spaces we were shooting in weren't heated.
09:53It was a dead of winter.
09:53And it was just such heavy material.
09:55And I remember I saw him at the hotel one day.
09:58And I was like, hey.
10:00And he was like, hey.
10:02He was in that character.
10:04And I was like, how's it going?
10:06He's like, it's going fine.
10:08I was like, are you okay?
10:09He's like, yeah, I think so.
10:13I don't know.
10:14I don't fucking know.
10:16And none of us really knew how it was going.
10:20But he never broke.
10:21Not even in that moment when he did break.
10:23He didn't break.
10:24It's such an incredible performance.
10:27I don't think people realize just quite how incredible that performance is.
10:31Channing, too.
10:31I mean, they were just incredible.
10:34How did that experience differ from your experience working with Steve on Date Night?
10:39Date Night was my attempt at doing comedy to break out into comedy.
10:48I'll never forget when I walked in there.
10:50He's like, man, why are you doing this?
10:53I can't believe you're doing this.
10:55He's like, I'm honored to meet you.
10:57And I'm so glad you're doing this.
10:58But I don't know why you're doing this little part, you know.
11:01And yeah, it was very much different than Foxcatcher.
11:06That's for sure.
11:07Spotlight.
11:09What's the hardest part about playing a real living person who you're spending time with?
11:14Just to be as honest and fair as possible with them.
11:18I think, you know, most of the people that I've played are pretty decent people.
11:23So to capture something that's true to who they are, I feel, is your biggest responsibility.
11:29Get to know them as much as you can to do that and have them trust you if they're alive.
11:34Okay, we'll move to a non-decent person that you've played with poor things.
11:38Right.
11:39How did Yorgos help you get into this character?
11:41Yorgos doesn't like to talk too much about the script or characters or anything like that.
11:46We did a lot of games, theater games.
11:50We would puppet each other, play out a scene and have to move their arms and their head,
11:56crazy dances or have to sing.
11:59Mostly just things to kind of make the troupe, who was all the actors, feel comfortable and free with each other physically.
12:09Let us go.
12:14Oh.
12:17Task.
12:18If my math is right, this will be the fifth detective that you've played.
12:22Why do you think you're drawn to these roles?
12:24You know, it's funny.
12:26With actors, people think that we have a lot of control over what we end up doing.
12:35But it's usually just who comes to you for whatever reason, people keep coming to me for detective roles.
12:44I take them and I like them and they're interesting to me because I guess it's trying to figure out what the puzzle is.
12:53Working in this kind of gray area, law is sort of becomes a little bit relative and right and wrong becomes relative.
13:05Begin again.
13:06What were you and Keira Knightley actually listening to during that headphone splitter scene?
13:11We were listening to the song that it's cut to for once in my life and we're doing it all over the city in many different days.
13:18That was magical, shooting that movie in New York City.
13:22We don't shoot very much here anymore.
13:25And I haven't shot in New York City since then, except for this Lena Dunham movie I've just finished.
13:32But just to be in the subways, on the streets, there's no, they don't lock down New York City.
13:39They're not allowed to close a road or anything like that.
13:42So there's just people everywhere and they're watching it and they're part of it and it's just so alive.
13:49Falling in love in New York City is so special.
13:55And I really do feel like that montage and that particular song and those people at that moment in their lives really makes it something that's very special in a movie.
14:08The Brothers Bloom, one of my favorite movies, if I may say.
14:13It's so good.
14:14Everyone I've talked to loves this movie, but I know when it came out, it didn't do as well as people hoped.
14:19Yeah.
14:20Were you surprised by the original reception?
14:23I was so shocked by it because I just thought it was so great.
14:28The writing, you know, Ryan's style, that cast, the world it created.
14:34I was so disappointed.
14:36And I thought the world would see it the way I saw it.
14:37It was just really, a really great, fun movie.
14:41I was surprised.
14:43I was kind of heartbroken, actually.
14:45Seems that people are watching it now.
14:47Finding it now?
14:48Yeah.
14:48I didn't know that.
14:50I'm so happy to hear that you love that movie.
14:52I think it's a sleeper hit.
14:53I think people are coming to it now.
14:55That's great.
14:56In the Cut, too, sort of did that.
14:58Yeah, actually.
14:58It's having a reemergence.
15:00And that wasn't received well in the beginning.
15:02Yeah, we can talk about that now.
15:03That was my question for In the Cut.
15:05People didn't really get it at first.
15:07What do you think changed?
15:08The world caught up with the movie.
15:11Sadly and unfairly, people didn't want to accept Meg Ryan, you know, America's sweetheart,
15:19as that character.
15:21You know, a woman who's sexually free, living outside of the sort of norms.
15:27It's really an ode to feminism, that movie.
15:29It's really wrapped in a genre, you know.
15:32I just think it was ahead of its time, honestly.
15:34Just so ahead of its time.
15:36And I do think that there was a lot of misogyny in the way that the media treated Meg.
15:43It was horrible.
15:44It was unfair.
15:45I mean, that's as good as anything she'd ever done.
15:47But it's challenging, that movie, too.
15:50A lot of, like, traditional ideas about relationships and marriage, marriage especially.
15:56But, you know, that's before Me Too.
15:58It was just a different culture.
15:59You know, it was wanting to be birthed.
16:02It was in the ethos, but it was just the culture wasn't ready to hear it yet.
16:10And sometimes a movie is called From the Culture, and it lands exactly at the moment that we're
16:19ready to have that discussion, like the kids are all right or something like that, where
16:23we're in the middle of this sort of cultural discussion, and then a film comes, and it sort
16:32of gives voice to an idea or a movement that is trying to find its voice, to try and to
16:43articulate itself clearly.
16:44Well, let's talk about The Kids Are All Right.
16:46You've said before that you thought this would be your last acting role.
16:50Why this role?
16:50My brother just died before The Kids Are All Right, and I directed a movie, Sympathy for
17:00Delicious, and I thought, I mean, I really loved doing that.
17:04Directing was just a very satisfying creative process, just because of all of the different
17:10artists I was getting to work with.
17:13And then my brother died, so I was already like, maybe I want to move more into directing.
17:19My brother died, and I was like, yeah, that's it, life's short, man.
17:23I'm going to do this last film as a homage to him, because the character and The Kids Are
17:29All Right was really my brother.
17:33And I'm going to be free.
17:34I don't give a shit.
17:36At that point in my career, I was just feeling really bogged down.
17:40I really got involved with what the business, what I should do for my career, what I should
17:45do for the business, what I should do for my brand, like all of these sort of false identities
17:52and concepts that don't have anything to do with being an artist, really.
17:56I was really free in that film in a way that I hadn't been since I first started.
18:01Like, maybe you can count on me, probably.
18:04And that was going to be it.
18:04And then I was going to transition into directing.
18:07And I had both, most movies play at Sundance.
18:11They're both magical.
18:12You know, they're both really received well by the audiences.
18:16But what I did see was like, oh, this is the experience that I make movies for.
18:23And that is the experience that I want to have making a movie where I feel free and I'm
18:27not doing this because it's the commercially right thing to do, but just because I love
18:32this character and the character means something to me.
18:35And then all of a sudden, a lot more jobs started to come.
18:39Acting jobs that I liked.
18:41I've just been on that road since then, really.
18:46Shutter Island.
18:48Did you ever say no to Marty's direction?
18:50And if so, how do you say no to Martin Scorsese?
18:53You never say no to Marty's direction, ever.
18:55Marty doesn't give a lot of direction, though, so you don't have to say no.
18:59And the direction he gives is like, is spot on.
19:02I don't know how you'd say no.
19:04I mean, I know how you'd say no.
19:05You just have a discussion with him and then he would say, okay, that sounds good.
19:10And I'll go do it like I told you to do it.
19:13Now you see me.
19:14Yeah.
19:14What was your first reaction when you learned the big twist?
19:17I was like, okay, I want to do this.
19:19That's great.
19:20That's a great twist.
19:21And no one is going to see that coming.
19:24And then, like, the acting of getting to play that twist the whole time.
19:29I don't have time for this magic crap.
19:31This crap just pulled three million euro out of a Parisian bank.
19:33That's how much they got, you know?
19:35Actually, 3.2.
19:36You know, having that character know what's going on and that duplicity, duality, that's fun and exciting in characters.
19:45I keep finding myself in those kinds of places with different characters.
19:53Now you see me, too.
19:55How was it being the only horseman in the movie who doesn't do any magic tricks?
19:59It's really sucky.
20:00Everyone learned how to do all the magic in that, especially now you see me one.
20:06And so when we would go out, it would just be people doing magic and Woody reading people's minds.
20:13I mean, I was still part of it all, but I didn't get to learn how to do anything cool.
20:17They didn't teach you?
20:18Well, I didn't fit in.
20:19Dark Waters, how does the creative process change when you're producing a Todd Haynes movie as well as acting in it?
20:29That I got as a property and developed it.
20:33So I don't really, haven't really done a lot of that.
20:37So developing the script and getting time to do it and then working with him on the script,
20:42it's just a much more involved, satisfying process to go from beginning to end.
20:50It was something I really cared about and it had tied in my activism work,
20:56which I'd been doing so much activism on water at that point.
20:59So that movie was this moment where I was like,
21:02okay, I want to take this other thing that I'm very passionate about, the environment,
21:06and then make a movie about that.
21:08And hopefully that'll speak to the world in a way that just being an activist can't.
21:14And it did.
21:16You can count on me.
21:18Would you say this was your big break?
21:19Yeah, for sure.
21:20I had another big break, which was a play that I did here in New York.
21:25This is Our Youth, which was written by Kenny Lonergan.
21:28That's kind of where I feel like the business discovered me,
21:33but where Kenny and I discovered each other.
21:36And that led to You Can Count On Me, which was, yeah,
21:41that changed everything for me as an actor.
21:43But then I got sick after that.
21:46I had a brain tumor and all of these big offers that were coming,
21:51I had to turn down.
21:54And that took me out for like almost a year, maybe a longer.
21:57And I felt like I was starting all over again after that
22:02because the heat was off of me, you know.
22:04Margaret, how was it reuniting with Lonergan 11 years after You Can Count On Me?
22:10It was great.
22:11I was supposed to play the Matthew Broderick part.
22:14And Kenny came to me and he said,
22:16I really need you to take this other part because I really need Matt to be in it
22:19because he's a movie star and you're not a movie star.
22:21And I need $13 million.
22:22And they'll only give me $8 million with that movie, with you in this part.
22:26So if they bring Matt in, they'll give me $13 million.
22:28And then I can shoot in the, I want to shoot in Carnegie Hall for the last scene.
22:34And the only way I could do that is if I get the extra money.
22:36So you have to play this other part.
22:37And I was like, okay.
22:39But it's a great part.
22:40And it was actually a part that I was probably better for.
22:44I love the guy.
22:45He's one of my best friends.
22:47And I would do anything with him.
22:51That's a masterpiece, that film.
22:54Just like heaven.
22:56How do you get in a bar fight with yourself?
22:58Well, I'm constantly fighting with myself.
23:01So it's just taking it out of my head and into my body.
23:04I didn't know how to do that.
23:05I actually, there's a clown that I worked with a little bit to do that.
23:09I love that movie.
23:10That was like, I thought it was going to be my entree into more comedy.
23:14But it just never really happened after that.
23:17And I thought, okay, well, maybe I don't really fit in that genre.
23:22Sympathy for Delicious.
23:24Yeah.
23:24When will we get another Mark Ruffalo directing?
23:26Oh, buddy.
23:27I want to direct so badly.
23:31There's something I've been developing now for a couple few years.
23:35And I have it out to some producers to see if it's something that there's a place for in the world.
23:42But that would be in the vein of Dark Waters, but more about climate change.
23:49Where the Wild Things Are.
23:50How did Spike Jonze pitch this to you?
23:54We want to make a movie, Where the Wild Things Are.
23:57Okay, I'm in.
23:58Perfect.
23:59You're only in one scene?
24:00Awesome, I'm in.
24:02The Atom Project.
24:03How many times did you have to punch Ryan Reynolds to get that scene right?
24:07Once.
24:07It's fine, I'm fine.
24:09So, oh, that's what you get.
24:12We don't hit people in this family.
24:14What was that?
24:14That's what you get.
24:15It was written that way, and we did a rehearsal, and I had a dream that that's what the punch
24:21should look like.
24:22And I just did what I did in my dream, and we did it, and they were all laughing.
24:28And Sean's like, well, let's do it again, but I think we have it.
24:32But that was one of those moments where it was just like the spontaneity and the, you know,
24:38it was just, it was right there.
24:41All the Light We Cannot See.
24:43Was there pressure taking on a character from such a beloved book?
24:46Yeah, that was heady, and people love that book.
24:52It's such an important character to people, too.
24:55So, yeah, there was a lot of pressure.
24:58I know this much is true.
25:00How do you prepare to act against yourself?
25:02Get another great actor to act opposite you.
25:04Gabe Fazio.
25:05Derek said, there's this guy, he's really great, and I want a really great actor to do it.
25:11And he's coming up, and we met with him, and he was just, he was fantastic.
25:18He put on the weight.
25:19He took off the weight.
25:21He had the full characterization when he came in.
25:26If you have to do that, playing to a tennis ball is disastrous.
25:31You need an actor.
25:34Rumor has it, do you think Jeff should have taken Sarah back?
25:38Totally.
25:38Jeff should have taken Sarah back.
25:43We don't live here anymore.
25:45I'm noticing a pattern.
25:47Why do your fictional wives keep taking you back?
25:50Because I'm charming.
25:52I'm good at an apology.
25:56XXXY.
25:57Did this film change how you feel about dating and relationship?
26:00No, because it was already, it was already, you know, familiar to me as a young actor.
26:08View from the top.
26:11Some might say this is your first official rom-com.
26:14Absolutely view from the top in the first rom-com.
26:16Why did you take the role?
26:18It was the right thing to do at the time, was to make a rom-com.
26:23Safe men.
26:24Almost all the actors in this film, soon after it came out, became big names.
26:29Did you see that coming?
26:29Those were all the guys that I came up with in New York City in the theater scene.
26:35And I knew they were all really great talents.
26:38But how could I have ever known that, you know, Sam Rockwell and Steve and Paul Giamatti,
26:45Josh Ply, who would know that all those people would just kind of hit?
26:49It was just a special time in New York.
26:51And John Hamburg had a really good hand on it.
26:54And I think it was A.B. Kaufman who directed, who cast that.
26:59Infinitely Polar Bear.
27:00How did you get involved in this film?
27:01I love that movie so much.
27:03Maya Forbes, who's, it's her life story.
27:06We had the same manager and she said, I am interested in Mark.
27:09And I met with her once and she told me the story about her dad.
27:12And I was like, I want to do this.
27:14That's my daughter's favorite movie I've ever done.
27:17Now we're going to go into true rapid fire.
27:19Okay.
27:20I'm going to say the name of the movie.
27:22And if you could just say one or two words that come to you when I say it.
27:25Okay.
27:27Thanks for sharing.
27:28Really tough addiction to have.
27:30Blindness.
27:31End of the world seems so close now.
27:35The Last Castle.
27:36Robert Redford and James Gandolfini took me under their wing and saved me.
27:42Ride with the devil.
27:43Disastrous scene where I lied to Ang Lee about being able to ride a horse.
27:50Wow.
27:50I wish we could talk more about that.
27:52That's really bad.
27:53Reservation Road.
27:54Totally improvised last final scene.
27:57Shot at once.
27:59Packed up and went home.
28:00What doesn't kill you?
28:02Makes you stronger.
28:04A fish in the bathtub.
28:05Oh, God.
28:07One of my first movies.
28:09Joan Micklin's Silver.
28:10That was like one of my first gigs.
28:13Apartment 12.
28:15Oh.
28:16Really my first movie.
28:18And we made it on nothing.
28:21So much fun.
28:22So hard.
28:23Worth a watch.
28:25My Life Without Me.
28:26First thing I did after my brain tumor.
28:28Also saved my life.
28:29Mirror Mirror 2 and Mirror Mirror 3.
28:32I played two different characters.
28:36I die in one and then come back as another character in another.
28:40One was basically your average teen horror flick.
28:45And the other one was basically just a softcore porn.
28:49There goes my baby.
28:51Oh, my God.
28:53I totally choked on that.
28:55Could barely say my line.
28:57We had to shoot that scene like 10 times.
28:59And the director was so bummed at me.
29:01Wind Talkers.
29:04Oh, man.
29:05That was the movie that killed MGM the first time.
29:09We bankrupted MGM.
29:10Committed.
29:11Another one of my first things.
29:13I had to punch a wall and I broke my hand.
29:1754.
29:1954.
29:21Amazing hairstyles.
29:23The Last Big Thing.
29:26Oh, the culture's going down on itself.
29:28Blood Money.
29:29Oh, my God.
29:31I did it for the money.
29:33The dentist.
29:35Dentist.
29:36Holy shit.
29:37I had a whole period of my life that were like, I got in the kind of bad horror scene
29:45in L.A.
29:46Thank God.
29:47Because that's how I got my side card.
29:48A Gift from Heaven.
29:49That was another like small budget indie that came out of the L.A. theater scene.
29:57The Destiny of Marty Fine.
29:58That was a movie that I wrote and I wrote it on bar napkins when I was bartending and
30:05it was based on a conversation that I had with a guy who told me that he'd witnessed
30:13a mob killing and was on the run for the rest of his life because of it.
30:17Wow.
30:19We made it through it all.
30:20I didn't know if we were going to do that.
30:22We talked about every single one of your movies.
30:24I talked a lot.
30:25So, it's amazing you got it.
30:27All that.
30:28We talked about every single one of our movie.

30:42the doctor, but it's important.
30:43We presented some of their movies, which they didn't show up the world alors.
30:43We talked about the movies.
30:45We talked about each other stuff.
30:45There're those that were problems that were stayed for at home.
30:47We talked about the rules, and we did then.
