00:00 You do have the greatest voice in the world.
00:04 What are your tips?
00:05 What's your secret to your great voice?
00:08 I don't have one, to tell you the truth.
00:11 It's just luck.
00:12 There is a story I often tell, which I want to repeat here.
00:27 It occurred to me that winning the nomination is probably the height of it.
00:36 It's about as far as you can really reasonably go.
00:42 And after that, it's pretty arbitrary, you know, because how can any of us be best?
00:49 We can't.
00:51 You've been an actor for many years, you know, you've done a lot of theater and movies and
01:01 the whole thing, and all of a sudden you get this great recognition for a wonderful performance
01:06 in Street Smart.
01:08 How do you feel about that?
01:10 All this coming your way at this time?
01:13 Well, you know, they say things happen when they happen.
01:16 They happen in their own time and they happen for their own reasons.
01:19 So I'm feeling quite well about it.
01:23 I'm prepared, I can tell you that.
01:25 Do you have your speech ready?
01:27 No speeches, no.
01:30 Well, how important are awards to you?
01:32 Well, I'm going to sound a little funny here, but awards for best actor are not very important
01:38 at all.
01:39 There's no such thing as a best actor in this business.
01:40 You can't call yourself the best actor.
01:41 You can't even allow anyone to call you the best actor.
01:42 No.
01:47 No.
01:48 No.
01:48 No.
01:53 No.
