I'm channel surfing and run across this one and wouldn't ya fawkin' know
it, there was about 10 minutes left. Lipton's doing his Freudian bit
where he fires off these questions requiring a one-word answer. I
remember a couple of them:

Favorite swear word: "It's a Jersey word: fawkin' douchebag"
Favorite sound: his kid laughing
Sound he hates the most: cars wizzing by on a highway

One studenn asked him how he prepared himself for violent scenes. He
said his best tool was to only sleep 1 or two hours the night before. He
said "lack of sleep will piss you off like nothing else".

The thing that surprised me was that he sat slumped in the chair with
his head down most of the time rubbing his chin with one hand as if he
had a beard or something. The other surprising thing was how much his
normal speaking voice was like Tony Soprano's, except that he didn't
breathe heavily out of his nose.

I'll have to keep me eyes out for a repeat.

Oh and I almost forgot, the word he hates the most is 'whatever'.

He sounded like TS in the movie 8 MM too. I have liked his other movies
and hope we'll see more of him.

I always assumed his "Kevin Finnerty" voice was his real voice.

If you spend any time with people under the age of 30, whatever" is
bound to be your least favorite word.

You are sooo correct. The dismissive "Whatever" is enough to drive anyone
over 30 crazy!
