Name some of the really weird characters you've seen in movies.

Adore in The Day Of The Locust. Jackie Earle Haley does an excellent job of acting this part, but wow what a creepy child.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Jackie is a really good actor but was forgotten for years.

Anyone in a David Lynch movie.

Liberace as an unctuous funeral director/coffin salesman in Tony Richardson's The Loved One. In the same film, Jonathan Winters is an over-the-top evangelist whose tagline is "Resurrection NOW!!!!" And then there is the embalmer, Mr. Joyboy, played by Rod Steiger.

Shirley Stoler and Tony Lo Bianco in The Honeymoon Killers.

Nicholson's character in AS GOOD AS IT GETS is pretty damn weird-- especially for the audience to stomach as a quasi-romantic lead.

I am Torgo. I take care of the house while the master is away.

Words don't deserve that kind of malarkey. They're innocent, neutral, precise, standing for this, describing that, meaning the other, so if you look after them you can build bridges across incomprehension and chaos. But when they get their corners knocked off, they're no good anymore…I don't think writers are sacred, but words are. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little.
