Rian Johnson on X:

Emmet came to set with 2 things: a copy of his credits, which was a small-type single spaced double column list of modern classics that filled a whole page, & two-dollar bills which he passed out to the entire crew. “Don’t spend it and you’ll never be broke.” Absolute legend.

Oh year, that guy.

The only specific performance I can bring to mind is Dr. Bass in A Time to Kill. He WAS Dr. Bass. And the next movie, he would be someone else entirely. Movies could not be made without performers like that.
