"I want to do a movie, but..." - Quote by Robin Williams
I want to do a movie, but it has to be the right movie, whether it's independent or a studio movie. I'm much more open to being a supporting actor. At the age of 60, I'll be second fiddle. Fine. I'm happy to do it.

“I was born. When I was 23 I started telling jokes. Then I started going on television and doing films. That's still what I am doing. The end.”
