Vi är för unga (även fast jag är gammal). Vi har ingen direkt relation till filmstjärnan Warren Beatty och hans maffiga katalog av filmer som han lirat huvudrollen i sedan 50-talet. En gång i tiden var han dåtidens Brad Pit som sedan blev något av en surgubbe som tackade nej till i stort sett varenda film som erbjöds. I en intervju med MTV berättade Beatty nyligen lite om varför han tackade nej till ett antal ordentligt klassiska filmer.
• Gudfadern:
"I read the script, and I said, Charlie, there's no movie here."
• Superman:
"I said to my assistant, run out and get me some long underwear. So she brings back the long underwear, and I take off my pants, and put on the long underwear, and open the full-length mirror, and I went to the telephone and I said, Look, just forget about Superman, it ain't going to happen."
• Boogie Nights:
"I felt that I didn't want to do a movie about porn when I was having these kids, and that's probably a snobby....by the way, I think it's a very good movie. And PTA is a very, very good director."
• Kill Bill:
"I believe it was my suggestion that David Carradine would be best for it. I didn't want to leave my kids...He was shooting the movie in China, and I thought [Quentin was] going to be over there for a long time. And he said, no it won't be that long. In fact, he was over there for exactly the time that I predicted."
