Transcript

00:09When we're living our life forward, nothing seems like one big moment.
00:11But looking back, you can kind of pin things.
00:13I went in and auditioned for the movie Pretty in Pink, and Molly was in the audition room, Molly Ringwald.
00:18And I read the scene, and I went to audition, and she was there reading.
00:22And when I left the room, Molly turned around to John Hughes and said, that's the guy.
00:26And John Hughes looked up at her and said, that wimp?
00:28And she said, no, he's romantic and, you know, poetic.
00:31He's the guy.
00:32And I'd say that was the day that changed my life.
00:35Really?
