>> Dave: IT'S NOT THAT UNUSUAL
FOR A NEW YORK CITY BUS.
DRIVER, EXCUSE ME, WHAT
HAPPENED?
I THINK WE HIT A GIANT PINATA.
SOME TERRIFIC ACTORS.
>> YEAH, THERE WERE....
>> Dave: CHRIS KRISTOFFERSON,
HARRY DEAN STAN TON, EVA MENDEZ
AND MY BROTHER OWEN IS IN IT, A
LOT OF GOOD, FUN PEOPLE.
>> Dave: HOW DID YOU GET ALONG
WITH THE DIRECTOR OR THE OLDER
ACTORS.
HOW OLD IS HARRY DEAN?
>> HARRY DEAN IS 78.
YOU GET TO A CERTAIN PLACE IN
YOUR LIFE AND YOU CAN'T REALLY
PICTURE YOURSELF YELLING AT A
78-YEAR-OLD MAN.
>> Dave: YOU SHOULDN'T DO THAT.
>> YET THERE I WAS, HARRY DEAN
AND I YELLING AT EACH OTHER.
>> Dave: REALLY?
WHAT PROVOKED THIS?
>> WELL, THERE WAS THIS ONE SANE
WHERE HE WAS SUPPOSED TO GIVE ME
HIS WIFE'S WEDDING RING FOR ME
TO GIVE THE GIRL THAT I WAS IN
LOVE WITH IN THE MOVIE.
AND HARRY DEAN HAS BEEN, YOU
KNOW, IN 150 MOVIES AND BEEN IN
THE BUSINESS 50 YEARS BUT HE CAN
GET A LITTLE CANTANKEROUS.
HE STARTED SAYING TO ME, I'M NOT
JUST GOING TO FLICK MY DEAD
WIFE'S WEDDING RING IN THE AIR,
MAN.
I SAID YOU'RE NOT FLICKING IT IN
THE AIR.
YOU'RE GIVING TO IT ME.
IT'S A NICE MOMENT.
WE JUST WENT BACK AND FORTH AND
THEN I SAID LOOK, WE DON'T HAVE
A LOT OF TIME HERE.
ARE YOU GOING TO DO IT OR NOT
AND HE SAID "I DON'T KNOW, MAN."
AT THAT POINT I JUST THOUGHT I
WOULD ACTUALLY TRY TO STARE HIM
INTO DOING IT.
I HAD THESE SCRIPT PANELS IN MY
HAND I WAS GOING TO RIP IN HALF,
BUT I HAD A LITTLE TOO MANY
PANELS SO I COULDN'T GET IT IN
HALF.
SO I THREW IT ON THE GROUND AND
KICKED THE CHAIR.
AS I'M GOING THROUGH THE HALLWAY
I HEARD HIM SAY "I SAID I'D DO
IT."
WHICH HE NEVER SAID, OF COURSE.
SO LATER THAT... HE KIND OF
AVOIDED ME FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS
AND THEN HE SAUNTERED UP TO ME
AFTER LUNCH AND SAID, ALSO MY
MOTHER WAS WORKING ON THE FILM,
STILL PHOTOGRAPHER, JUST TAKING
PUBLICITY PICTURES AND HARRY
DEAN WALKED UP AND SAID, YOU
KNOW, I SPOKE TO YOUR MOTHER.
I TOLD HER THAT YOU SWORE AT ME
THIS MORNING.
( LAUGHTER )
AND SHE'D LIKE TO SPEAK TO YOU.
>> Dave: HARRY DEAN RATED YOU
OUT.
>> AND SURE ENOUGH I GOT A
TALKING TO BY MY MOTHER LATER
THAT DAY.
YOU'VE GOT TO BE MORE KIND TO
HARRY DEAN.
AND ALSO THOSE GUYS, HARRY DEAN,
HE WOULD CLAIM THAT I WASN'T
FLEXIBLE AND I WOULDN'T LET HIM
CHANGE THE WORDS.
BUT THAT WASN'T TRUE.
HE WOULD GO UP TO ANDREW AND SAY
SHAKESPEARE HERE "REFERRING TO
ME" SAID HE WON'T LET ME SAY A
INSTEAD OF THE ANDREW SAID WHY
DON'T YOU JUST DO IT LIKE IT'S
WRITTEN.
WE DON'T HAVE A LOT OF TIME AND
HARRY DEAN WOULD SAY' BOTH LIKE
A PAIR DOBERMANS.
I WAS RELAXING HAVING A DRINK IN
THE BAR AND HE WALKS IN AND JUST
STARTS LOOKING AT ME.
HE LOOKS AT ME AND THEN HIGH HE
ORDERS A DRINK AND HE SAID COMMA
TO ME.
I DO
>> Dave: NOW THAT'S THE WAY
CINCO DE MAYO IS MEANT TO BE
CELEBRATED.
EARLIER WE HAD MY MOM ON VIA
SATELLITE AND I WAS CHATTING
WITH HER ABOUT HER VISITING ME
AT MY HOME LAST WEEKEND.
THIS IS MY MOTHER READING A
STORY TO MY ONE AND A
HALF-YEAR-OLD SON.

ABOUT RIGHT THERE.
