I like 'The Graduate.' That's one of my favorites.
My first movie was with Mike Nichols.
I want to do 'The Graduate!' When Lorraine Bracco's finished, I'm up for it.
I think Mike Nichols is brilliant, but I think Jerry Robbins was a genius.
I worked with Mike Nichols. First time I worked with Mike Nichols, I just really loved this man.
But I think the thing I'm proud of about the film is that there aren't many films - either independent films or mainstream Hollywood films - that are like this; it's of its own times, and it's the film Mike Nichols wanted to make.
Of course it's difficult to turn anything down when Mike Nichols calls you personally.
Meeting Mike Nichols was a sort of lifetime occupation.
Mrs. Robinson is a little dated now, but it has nothing to do with Joe DiMaggio.
I'm a very eclectic person, and I enjoy multiple tastes; I'm like a bee who jumps from flower to flower. Before I die, I have to make a war movie, a Western, and a movie like Mike Nichols, because I love him.
'The Graduate' should have won best picture over 'In the Heat of the Night.'
Mike Nichols got me my Equity card.
I've always had good relationships with directors. I'm one of those people where, if there's a good idea coming from the sound guy, I'll take it. Filmmaking is a collaborative effort, whether it's a first-time director or it's Mike Nichols. I think that's the standard that the great ones set.
