00:00Yeah, but she was like dead when she was alive, you know.
00:07She was always there for a purpose, you know, she's there to write, she's there to know
00:11what she's got.
00:12I mean, in Bad Lieutenant, she's not gonna fuck that way.
00:13Did she really shoot up in Bad Lieutenant?
00:14Yeah, it was her birthday, yeah.
00:15Her, nobody else, but that was her birthday, it was the last scene, so we gave her an exception.
00:28You know, she's a beautiful writer, you know what I mean, I mean, I must, you know, you
00:51don't replace guys like that, I mean, where do you get somebody that nice like that?
01:12You know, we're not monsters, we're working together.
01:21Do you think that she valued her beauty, or?
01:24She used it, I mean, she knew it, you know.
01:28She had it, you know, she was awesome, she was like a boss.
01:34Where do you even find people who can write like that?
01:38Yeah, she's amazing, she was like a boss.
01:46When you're thinking about who could play Pasolini, she was the only person that really
01:49jumped off at you, and play her, play Mrs. Dyke.
01:56What would her look be?
01:58Playing Pasolini, I mean, I never got that far with her.
02:05And I'm having a dream that someone's beating the shit out of me, and then I wake up and
02:11somebody's like, you know what I mean, like holding me up, like, ow!
02:14One time, I was asleep in a hotel room after I'd worked for like three days straight, and
02:22a guy thought I was fooling around with his girlfriend, which I wasn't, she was an actress
02:28And this guy was so out of his mind, he got into my hotel room, dragged me out of my sleep,
02:35and I was, you know, I was totally asleep.
02:38I woke up with a guy holding me up and punching me in my face, okay?
02:44Now it's a good thing this guy couldn't throw a punch, he was like five foot six and skinny,
02:48or else I'd either be dead or be in a wheelchair for the rest of my life.
02:52What did you think about when that guy was punching you in your face?
02:56I thought if I had a gun, I'd shoot him.
02:59I said, why don't I have a pistol under my pillow?
03:02You know, that's what I was thinking.
03:05You know, I was thinking, man, how did I get into this?
03:08Because you know when you're having a dream, like a real, because I sleep really heavy, right?
03:12And at this point in my life, I was really heavy sleeping.
03:15I hadn't slept for days, right?
03:18And I'm having a dream that someone's beating the shit out of me, and then I wake up and
03:23somebody's like, you know what I mean, like holding me up and like pow!
