He said, “It is a big thing to get used to. I remember [director and actor] Lee Strasberg saying to me, 'Darling, you simply have to adjust.' And you simply do. But it's not so simple. I went through some stuff. I had therapy five days a week for 25 years. I just wanted to move away from the pace of the whole thing, and it was good for me. I enjoyed it. But then, as it happens, the money runs out. Sometimes, if you can hit the note, you go for it — but if you can't, it doesn't look good. So sometimes you hit it, sometimes you don't. I enjoyed it. But then, as happens, the money runs out.” (ALSO READ: The Irishman Trailer: Martin Scorsese's Much Awaited Gangster Movie Starring Robert De Niro And Al Pacino Is High On Thrill)
