| Eddie Murphy
How can you do the moonwalk and ask a woman to dance. Hey baby lets dance... cya later I'd like to produce, direct, write, score, and star in a film in exactly the way Chaplin did. I'll do that before I'm thirty. I'm 42 and the age of a guy who has kids, so I guess I'm playing right where I'm supposed to be. I'm comfortable with that, but in the same breath I'd do something edgy. If someone came to me and offered me an edgy and funny story, then I'd do it. I've made 30 movies and for the most part my movies work. In a business where success is an exception and not the rule, I've mostly been successful. In a movie like this, the relationship between the two guys is crucial. It sinks or swims on how these two guys are together. I think we did a good job. In the original script, my character was a basketball player rather than a boxer. I didn't think I could pull that off. I'm a little short to be a basketball player! That's a new thing for me, to have my costar in a scene turn to me and tell me they love me. In 48 HRS., Nick Nolte never turned to me and went I love you Ed! The thing about kids is that they express emotion. They don't hold back. If they want to cry, they cry, and if they are in a good mood, they're in a good mood. You know, making a movie is a collaborative effort and sometimes all the ingredients don't work out. I know that every now and again I am going to make a movie that won't work. |
