[In The Dark Backward ] someone who has writer's block and kills people in A Cabin By The Lake. I guess he's a type of serial killer, but I don't know.

I went to acting school with Mario Van Peebles. For a little while, he was at the same school. So he asked me if I wanted to do [ New Jack City]. He said, There's not really a role. We'll figure something out. But would you like to? And I was like, Sure. 'Cause he said it was Chris Rock and Ice T's first movie.

Trace Adkins doesn't talk too much, but when he does he's got great stories. He's lived a great life.

There were a few things that, in rehearsal, any one of us might try. [John] Hughes would go, I like that, to me spitting up in the air and catching it in my mouth. It was just something I did in a rehearsal and Molly [ Ringwald] went, Ewww. And John went, Can you do that again? And I went all day long, and he was like, Okay, let's do

I think that sometimes you don't have the opportunities for some of the most A-list-type movies, big-budget movies. But I think it's important to keep working and make the best of what's available. Because otherwise, what? Are you just going to get bitter and moan? What does my mom always say? If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.
Judd Nelson
I like Chicago. It's a great city. It's always fun to revisit it.

It's a profession where merit is not necessarily rewarded.

Stagecoach is really my first Western-Western, the whole horses and gunplay. It was really fun. We shot it fast, too. We got lucky with the weather. If it rained, I don't know if we would have been able to finish it. We had like 12 shooting days for the whole thing.
Judd Nelson
I am very grateful to make my living doing what I would do for free.

A fancy watch, it's completely unnecessary. I just need a watch to tell the right time.

[John] Hughes is a great loss, I think. He was the first filmmaker that could look at someone who was young without seeing them as being less.

Death is not my best subject.

[John] Hughes really wanted it to sound authentic. He was a real collaborator. He encouraged us to bring to the material things we thought were maybe more truthful.

I play a garbage man who moonlights as a stand-up comedian. Terrible.
Judd Nelson
It's strange, 'cause a play, you start at the beginning and you go all the way through to the end. So it's naturally very well rehearsed and you get a rhythm and a flow. In film, you can shoot the ending before the beginning. It's very odd. And it's like a craft you have to learn.
Judd Nelson
[John] Hughes was well aware that to ignore the seriousness of young people is to encourage things like Columbine, so you might want to listen. And we were all pretty serious, a little bit, in high school. Some a little more than others.
