“As Good As It Gets, I turned that down...but it was for a very good reason. They had this adorable dog in it, but in one scene the guys goes down the hall and puts the dog down the rubbish chute. Of course it lands on some cushions and it's fine, but I didn't want to set that example, because you never know what nuts or kids will see it and think I can do that. The director said, 'The dog's fine, the dog's fine!'. But I said, 'I just can't do that'. Of course the film was a tremendous hit, but I didn't regret turning it down.”
