TOoP/Bruce:
On turning down "Spiderman":
"It's not for me. I would be taking someone else's dream away.'"
TOoP/Bruce:
On the prospect of Brokeback Mountain being nominated for an Academy Award:
“Obviously it's an honor for the film to be in that category, but it's really strange for me that films and performances are compared as if we're all running the same race. We're all doing different ‘sports’ and we're all training differently, so you can't really compare them ever. They really are there for marketing reasons, but we can't help but get dragged into it. We're dragged into this false sense of success if they nominate you and then a false sense of failure when you don't win.”

TOoP/Bruce,
I have already watched some of these videos, but now that I finally have broadband at home I'll be watching and "re-watching" many times all of them!
Thank you for this very special thread!
Ellemeno:
Yes, Bruce, thank you so much for this pure treasure.
