Personal Quotes

People have grown up with Peter Pan, so they're familiar with Captain Hook and they have an opinion about what he should be like. I grew up watching the movie versions. But how do you try to play Captain Hook better than, or as well as, Dustin Hoffman? You can't. It's perfection.
When I was younger, I was hopefully going to do animation and special effects.

How do you try to play 'Captain Hook' better than, or as well as, Dustin Hoffman? You can't. It's perfection.
