Kurt Russell

(about playing 11-year-old Dakota Fanning's father in the 2005 film "Dreamer") Kurt Russell: Dakota is by far one of the best actors I've ever had the opportunity to work with. I just found it so fascinating to work with her. She shows you her feelings. She doesn't hide them. I've worked with them all. I've worked with Meryl Streep! I guarantee you that Dakota is probably the best actor I'll work with in my entire career.

Kurt: (on his first kiss) I was in third grade, and I noticed this really hot chick hanging out under the bridge with her friend. She was probably 13, and there was this vibe about her. She says, 'Hey, come here.' I think I'm going to get my first kiss. She lifts my shirt, then all of a sudden reaches into her bee hive, pulls out a penknife, and drags it about six inches across my stomach. It starts to bleed, and they haul ass. I was, like, 'What?'

(on his Dark Blue character, Eldon Perry) Kurt: For that time, this character has his own personal outlook. The way he looks at it, he has a real simple question to ask. That question is, "Who is gonna do this job? You?" How are we going to answer that question? That's what makes him up. We all look at the world through our own eyes. I don't know about you, but I am always surprised at what other people see. We have an imagination of what people see. Many times, it's not correct.
