You liked the freshness of it, c'mon try it and I said oh God, I read it three of four times and finally I said all right, I want you guys to organize a reading and I want you to be there to see how terrible this is not going to work at all, so we had a table like this, and read the script, and it was just great.
Jeff Bridges
Everybody loses a couple, and you either pack it up and go home or you keep on fighting.
