    I found a movie called "Light in the Piazza." I finally made the movie with Olivia de Havilland and myself, but initially there was no way I could make that movie, so I went to work on becoming that character. They told me they had an Italian [actor], and I said, "That's a Cuban boy!" His name was Tomas Milan. I thought that's the craziest thing I'd ever heard: They have a Cuban who's going to play an Italian, and I can't play it because I'm an American.

And I thought to myself, "How do I get into the script cage and find out what my future is?"I climbed into the script cage one night and spent the whole night in there. I saw the bowels of MGM. I saw the studio scripts that the producers had seen; the writers had just handed them in. And I started thinking this is a chance to pick my own roles.

    Entertainment was transportation. You were supposed to take somebody out of their seat and bring them back in. You're not supposed to impose your values or your supposed knowledge to manipulate or control people. That was not your job. You were not supposed to use the bully pulpit of Hollywood to pound people with ideas. You're there to entertain.
