Before 'The Bourne Identity' opened, 'The Legend of Bagger Vance' and 'All the Pretty Horses' had been huge bombs, ... I went eight months without getting an offer.

Right before The Bourne Identity came out, I hadn't been offered a movie in a year.

I guess the box line pretty much speaks for what it was: two terrible pitches and gave up two bombs and everything else was pretty good. It tells me when I'm executing my pitches, I'm getting the results that I want.

All The Pretty Horses

I do a lot of walking around the farm [with the horse]. A lot of your stupid horses, pretty much, they're bad because other people just run them in, run them out, put them on the trailer, take them home. They don't do any other activities with them.
