licence to kill ( 1989 ) is the sixteenth spy film in the james bond film series by eon productions , and the first one not to use the title of an ian fleming story .

it is the fifth and final consecutive bond film to be directed by john glen .

it also marks timothy dalton 's second and final performance in the role of james bond .

the story has elements of two ian fleming short stories and a novel , interwoven with aspects from japanese rōnin tales .

the film sees bond being suspended from mi6 as he pursues drugs lord franz sanchez , who has ordered an attack against his cia friend felix leiter and a rape and murder on felix 's wife during their honeymoon .

originally titled licence revoked in line with the plot , the name was changed during post-production because too many people did not know what revoked meant .

the film earned over $ 156 million worldwide , and enjoyed a generally positive critical reception , with ample praise for the stunts , but attracted some criticism of dalton 's dark and violent interpretation of bond and the fact that the film was significantly darker and more violent than its predecessors .

after the release of licence to kill , legal wrangling over control of the series and the james bond character resulted in a six-year-long delay in production of the next bond film which resulted in dalton deciding not to return .

it is also the final bond film for actors robert brown ( as m ) and caroline bliss ( as moneypenny ) , screenwriter richard maibaum , title designer maurice binder , editor john grover , cinematographer alec mills , director and former bond film editor john glen , and producer albert r. broccoli , although he would later act as a consulting producer for goldeneye before his death .

the project was originally titled
licence revoked
, and teaser artwork was produced with this title . among the reasons for changing the title was to avoid confusion with the 1981 james bond novel ,
licence renewed
, written by john gardner ( who ended up writing a novel based on this film as well ) . licence renewed means the opposite of licence revoked . another reason for the change was that
license revoked
denotes losing one ' s driving privileges in the u . s . taglines for

included

and
dismissed . disgraced . dishonored . deadly .
in the movie , when m says to james bond ,

license
) would be used in the title , the british spelling won out .

as post - production got under way , the publicity department set about creating the promotional posters for the film , all emblazoned with the title licence revoked . before long , however , the title had changed to the now more familiar licence to kill . the official line was that licence revoked was proving too hard to translate for non - english speaking territories , but it later emerged that test screenings in the states had left audiences puzzled - few of them , it is said , understood what the word
revoked
actually meant .

licence to kill
also offers to the audience a situation that is familiar to literary bond fans , but overwhelmingly disliked by non - book - movie - only bond fans as james bond pushes his luck to the maximum to get out of trouble . indeed ,
licence to kill
offers a sequence reminiscent to a scene in the casino royale novel ( 1953 ) where bond is captured by villain le chiffre and about to be killed only to survive as le chiffre ' s organization smersh decides to send a termination squadron to assassinate their traitor agent le chiffre and thus enabling bond to survive . the scenario delivered in
licence to kill
has james bond set up to kill sanchez using his signature sniper rifle , provided by q , and about to squeeze the trigger when attacked by chinese agents working for kwang ( cary - hiroyuki tagawa ) , undercover as a chinese businessman visiting sanchez to do business with him bringing cocaine back to china . however , sanchez ' chief of security heller ( don stroud ) followed and attacked the chinese agents and finds bond unconscious and tied down to a table . heller and sanchez conclude that bond was trying to eliminate the chinese agents to protect sanchez as moments earlier , bond had introduced himself to sanchez as a rogue

when bond refuses to leave the leiter matter to the americans , m tells bond that his
licence to kill is revoked
. however , it must be said that the film ' s title is not particularly appropriate when compared with its original title ( see the
anything else ?
section ) .
the initial outline of what would become licence to kill was drawn up by wilson and maibaum . before the pair could develop the script , the writers guild of america ( wga ) went on strike and maibaum was unable to continue writing , leaving wilson to work on the script on his own . although both the main plot and title of licence to kill owe nothing to any of the fleming novels , there are elements from the books that are used in the storyline , including a number of aspects of the short story
the hildebrand rarity
, such as the character milton krest . the novel live and let die provided the material surrounding felix leiter ' s mauling by a shark , whilst the film version of the book provided the close similarity between the main villain , mr . big , and licence to kill ' s main villain sanchez . the screenplay was not ready by the time casting had begun , with carey lowell being auditioned with lines from a view to a kill .
m :
this private vendetta of yours could easily compromise her majesty ' s government . you have an assignment , and i expect you to carry it out objectively and professionally !
james bond :
then you have my resignation , sir !

―m strips james bond of his licence to kill .
it probably shouldn ' t have come as too much of a surprise that kill ifer ends up dead early on .
i am not particularly a fan of
licence to kill
, but i certainly don ' t hate it . it isn ' t dull like certain bonds , and it isn ' t poorly made , or lazily put together . the problem with
licence to kill
is that it dares to be different , and by stepping outside the usual routine , we lose site , however briefly , of bond ' s cinematic values , history and legacy . however , we do need films like this , because it shows that cubby was never taking his eye off the ball .
there are very few low points in
licence to kill
. digging deep to find them , the character joe butcher ( wayne newton ) was rather silly and the score by michael kamen is easily one of the very worst of the series . gladys knight ' s theme song was however quite acceptable .
production notes - licence to kill with the living daylights still on general release and doing less well than anyone might have hoped , eon set about preparing the next bond adventure . licence to kill was going to break with the bond tradition in a number of ways . first of all it was the first eon bond film not to take at least part of its title from a fleming original - the only fleming titles still unused were the short stories quantum of solace , risico and the hildebrand rarity [ all 1960 ] and the property of a lady [ 1963 ] , none of which were then deemed suitably cinematic .
the movie title and the alternate title is said by m when bond is handing in his resignation :
your license to kill is revoked .

license to kill
is a very good bond film . i would rank it highly amongst the other bond films . i am a fleming adorer . i prefer bond to be what flemming wrote , not what broccoli or saltzman changed him in to . dalton came close to living up to that in
the living dalights
. he is bond , completely ruthless , violent , but charming , and a womaniser . that is how i like my bond served , as it were , and it ultimately helps
licence to kill
to stick out from the crowd .

norman wilner of msn considered licence to kill the second worst bond film , above only a view to a kill , but defended dalton , saying he
got a raw deal . the actor who could have been the definitive 007 . . . had the bad luck to inherit the role just as the series was at its weakest , struggling to cope with its general creative decline and the end of the cold war
. in october 2008 time out re - issued a review of licence to kill and also thought that dalton was unfortunate , saying
one has to feel for dalton , who was never given a fair shake by either of the films in which he appeared
. on a more positive note , chuck o ' leary of fantastica daily remarked that it was a rare entry in the bond series where the danger seems real .
audiences in the 1980 ' s were still expecting moore bond , and whilst
the living daylights
veered away from that , it still featured some of that wit .
licence to kill
goes very far away from that , and audiences just didn ' t want it , leading to its failure , along with other things . interestingly , if the film had been released now , audiences would have been more used to more similar realistic films , and it would have been more successful .
licence to kill ' s
downfall was that it was too ahead of its time . is it so far away from the recent craig films ? no .
despite eon ' s best efforts to endear the film to the american market by setting it on their doorstep and filling the supporting cast with american actors , licence to kill came of worst in the summer box office battle . with admissions dropping to 11 . 7 million , the all - important stateside gross of $ 34 , 667 , 015 didn ' t even manage to cover the negative costs of $ 35 million .
david hedison returned to the series to reprise the role of cia agent turned dea agent felix leiter . hedison had played the role once before , opposite roger moore in live and let die and became the first actor to play the character more than once . other familiar faces returning to the series were robert brown as m and caroline bliss as moneypenny , licence to kill marking the swan song in the series for both actors .

the bond girl : roberts’s bland geologist pales next to the snarling , statuesque jones , who can kill with a camptastic glare as much as a poisoned fishing rod .
unfortunately , the 1980 ' s also gave birth to other action / thriller film series , indiana jones , die hard , beverly hills cop etc . and box office wise , bond just couldn ' t keep up , with
licence to kill
having the lowest worldwide take . but it must be mentioned that only in north america did
licence to kill
make it ' s money , as on his home turf in the uk , bond still had it , with audience . yes , at the time dalton had his critics , but also his champions . but in recent years , there has been a slow albeit steady rise in the latter .
the opening chords to this movie ' s theme is similar to the one to goldfinger .
when you ' re up to your ankles , you ' re gonna beg to tell me everything . when it gets up to your knees , you ' ll kiss my ass to kill you !
thus snarls sanchez as he prepares to feed bond into a giant drug shredder .
now looking back on it ,
licence to kill
is almost unlike any other bond film we ' ve ever seen . borrowing elements from the fleming novel , live and let die and short story the hildebrand rarity , two of the darkest literacy installments , it is no wonder why the film adaptation reflects this .
sanchez ' s chilling words to an ill fated leiter couldn ' t be further from how you would describe the 16th bond adventure . daring , provocative and the highest certified film by the bbfc ,
licence to kill
harkens back to the roots of the 007 character created 37 years previously by fleming as dalton injects a brilliant sense of humanity and a no - nonsense attitude to the british secret agent we ' ve come to love .

gladys knight belts the living daylights out of the theme to licence to kill , a song that sounds like the kind of tune your parents would have had sex to in the 1980s . it’s the early electronic production that kills an otherwise solid james bond song here . if they’d put away the casio keyboards and hired a full orchestra instead , this could have been one of the best .

licence to kill ( released in the united states as license to kill , but sold in the u . s . home video market with the british spelling ) is the sixteenth film in the james bond film series made by eon productions . released in the united kingdom on 13 june , 1989 , licence to kill is the fifth and last bond film to be directed by john glen , and the second and final film with timothy dalton portraying british secret service agent , commander james bond . it is also the final film to have robert brown as m and caroline bliss and miss moneypenny as well as the final film to have both the gunbarrel sequence and the main title sequence designed by maurice binder before his death in 1991 and the final film to be produced by albert r . broccoli , who was unavailable for 1995 ' s goldeneye due to his declining health . broccoli had been credited with producing every official james bond film since dr . no ( 1962 ) , with the exception of thunderball ( 1965 ) .

deconstruction : bond going rogue had been hinted in previous films ( goldfinger , and most notably on her majesty ' s secret service ) , but never really explored until now . licence to kill really doesn ' t show this in a flattering light , considering the number of innocent people who end up dead because of bond ' s vendetta .

tid för hämnd

licence to kill
certainly doesn ' t skimp , but it ' s not up to the usual big budget standard . in its defence it does have a fabulous tanker truck chase climax . a wonderful sequence that ranks right up there with the best bond moments , it shows you bond as hero and victim . battered and bloodied come the end , it ' s very exciting and refreshing .

budgetary reasons caused licence to kill to be the first bond film shot completely outside the united kingdom , with locations in both florida and mexico . the film earned over $ 156 million worldwide , and enjoyed a generally positive critical reception , with ample praise for the stunts , but attracted some criticism of dalton ' s dark and violent interpretation of bond and the fact that the film was significantly darker and more violent than its predecessors .
in that respect
licence to kill
ultimately fails . it doesn ' t have die hard ' s tension , lethal weapon ' s humour or chemistry , or the big daft stupid fun of rambo or commando . what it does have , however , is a good plot , fine acting and john glen ' s best direction since he took on the mantle of helmer four films previously .

long - time friends with actress andrea bendewald . they both attended manhattan ' s high school for the performing arts . bendewald was maid of honor at aniston ' s wedding to brad pitt on july 29 , 2000 . and aniston was matron of honor at bendewald ' s wedding to actor mitch rouse on august 19 , 2001 .
in 2013 , rouse played eddie , the lead character in a single episode of the television series call me crazy : a five film .
andréa bendewald and mitch rouse , both actors , are to be married today by mairead mcallister , a universal life minister , at the saddlerock ranch in malibu , calif . the bride , 31 , will continue to use her name professionally . she played maddy piper springer on ' ' suddenly susan , ' ' a situation comedy that ran on nbc . the bride graduated from wright
the fifth wicket heralded the arrival of adam rouse , who batted patiently with will gidman as both batsmen accumulated list a career - best scores .
rouse worked as a psychiatrist in minyard ' s office for more than a decade and was chief deputy coroner before he was tapped for the top job .
rouse ' s typically dense speeches and his often - dramatic campaign messages echoed in his emotional pitches to the new orleans city council when requesting budget hikes for the beginning of his fiscal year . ( district b councilwoman latoya cantrell remarked at his second budget appearance that rouse was building up his
swagger .
)
a 50 partnership between devon smith and opener kavem hodge steadied the ship before a sensational reflex catch from adam ball dismissed smith via a deflection of ‘keeper rouse .
rouse , chief investigator brian lapeyrolerie and a dozen law enforcement officials , including nopd superintendent michael harrison , perform parallel investigations at the scene of an in - custody death , not solely relying on nopd ' s investigation and crime lab .
nobody touches the body until we get there ,
rouse says .
we press the pause button .
the next week , he invited her for a cup of coffee . they were going to get together again , but she and a friend went to nicaragua for a week as volunteers for save the children , a relief organization . they were helping to restore life after the destruction of hurricane mitch .
the bridegroom , 37 , is a former member of the second city comedy troupe in chicago , and has appeared on the abc , comedy central and hbo television networks and in movies . his parents , marilyn rouse and dr . james rouse , live in oak ridge , tenn . his father , a radiologist , is a founder and director of the oak ridge breast center .
will gidman hit a second successive half - century in a century stand with adam rouse that spared kent’s blushes as windward islands volcanoes eventually won by six wickets at the coolidge ground in antigua .
rouse now is responding to a growing crisis as heroin and opiate overdoses prompted the new orleans health department to issue a public health advisory last month . rouse responded to 44 accidental overdose deaths in 2014 and 43 deaths in 2015 . there were seven in january alone . more than 100 people were treated for overdoses in january 2016 , compared to 78 over the same time last year .
rouse estimates it would cost another $ 850 , 000 a year to pay for a full - time lab director , staff and supplies . for now , as the office has been doing for years , rouse sends samples to a lab in st . louis , which eats up $ 200 , 000 to $ 250 , 000 of his budget each year , with a four - to - six week turnaround for results . while there ' s a $ 600 , 000 difference between in - house testing and outsourcing to a lab outside the state , the downside , rouse says , is time .
but the new expansion finally made room for a mental health wing . rouse joined the coroner ' s office psychiatric staff while still a resident at charity hospital . in louisiana , coroners can evaluate the credibility of people seeking help for their loved ones and issue orders of protective custody .
ninety - nine times out of 100 , it ' s a credible cry for help ,
rouse says .
' ' there i was surrounded by the name mitch , ' ' ms . bendewald said . she added that the time she spent there gave her an opportunity to reflect on her life . ' ' as soon as i got back , i called him , ' ' she said . ' ' and we have been together ever since . ' '
in - custody deaths are
the highest profile stuff a coroner does ,
rouse says .
there was no organized process for that . i ' ll just be blunt - there was a historical distrust of the diagnoses .
there ' s a big pile of papers on the floor near rouse ' s desk -
spring cleaning ,
he says . the administrative floor is filled with desks and metal filing cabinets still wrapped in plastic , hauled from the old office .
the bride and the bridegroom met in october 1998 on the set of ' ' secret lives of men , ' ' an abc situation comedy where mr . rouse was one of the leads . ms . bendewald made a guest appearance as his former wife .
rouse has also appeared in several feature films including austin powers , friends with money , rudy , and the heartbreak kid . his most prominent screen appearance as an actor was playing the leading role opposite janeane garofalo in 1997 ' s dark romantic comedy sweethearts .
at his office ' s jan . 13 ribbon - cutting , rouse called the coroner ' s office
the final destination for the ills of humanity , for the violence , the drugs , the accidents , the unexpected and premature departures from this earth .
in december last year , the coroner ' s office responded to a police shooting in new orleans east following an early - morning traffic stop . rouse ' s investigation found officer frederick carter struck 33 - year - old calvin mckinnis several times when returning fire .
rouse - holding a paper cup of coffee and an iphone with a cracked screen - slouches in a black nylon motorcycle jacket at the end of a long , polished table in a conference room that is nearly empty , except for several shelves devoted to his personal medical library .
' ' when i first saw her , i could not talk to her , ' ' mr . rouse said , explaining that he was struck by her beauty and intelligence . ' ' by the end of the week , i ended up putting a few words together . ' '
rouse was valedictorian of his graduating class at jesuit high school in 1992 . he graduated from duke university in 1996 and georgetown in 2000 . he also plays drums in a garage band - badly .
i ' m nowhere near the level of doing it publicly ,
he says .
but when rouse opens the door to a large autopsy room , he reveals a pristine surgery suite surrounded by new medical equipment , as spotless , sterile and temperature - controlled as the massive coolers outside its doors . a small black ipod dock blasts gospel music from the corner of the room .
in his latest speeches , rouse reminds new orleanians to drive safer , eat healthier and be nice . he vented on social media last july 2 , a particularly bloody day on new orleans streets :
4 homicides in 6 hours this afternoon . four , for christ ' s sake .
both men steadied the ship before opening up with more expansive shots and shared a stand of 104 before rouse gave a sharp return catch to former west indies off - spinner shane shillingford to depart for 40 , surpassing his previous record score of 36 not out against the same opponents earlier on the tour .
coroner jeffrey rouse says he doesn’t have enough money in his budget to staff and run a toxicology wing , which might be rented out for extra revenue : “it was forward thinking to at least provide us the space - now it’s on me to hustle enough to get the money to do it . ”
in his free time , rouse volunteers at grace outreach center , a group home in central city for people with substance abuse issues and mental illness . with the closure of charity hospital and the loss of the public southeast louisiana hospital , the city no longer has a public detox facility or mental health hospital .
new orleans is a difficult place to grow a brain ,
rouse says . the lack of access to health care , education and healthy food , plus battling the
chaos and trauma at the home [ make it seem normal ] that conflicts end in death , that that ' s ok .
rouse committed his career to public psychiatry , saying he ' s made a
conscious choice in that to not go uptown and open up a practice and make a bunch of money giving ritalin and prozac to stressed white people
- and he now oversees one of the largest public health strongholds in the state .
you take jefferson parish , st . tammany , baton rouge and add them together and that ' s what we ' re dealing with on a daily basis on a budget that ' s a fraction of what they got ,
rouse says .
we ' re always hustling to get that done .
coroner jeffrey rouse says he doesn ' t have enough money in his budget to staff and run a toxicology wing , which might be rented out for extra revenue :
it was forward thinking to at least provide us the space - now it ' s on me to hustle enough to get the money to do it .
at the old office , families had those kinds of private conversations in the makeshift lobby , surrounded by staffers or people walking into the office . in 2006 , rouse met a family seeking protective custody for a family member at a coffee shop . he asked whether the family member had access to a gun . they said no .
the new coroner ' s office is a three - story , 23 , 000 - square - foot facility - funded by fema reimbursements , law enforcement district bond funds and disaster community development block grant funds - with refrigerated storage that can accommodate up to 112 bodies , with five autopsy stations , a mental health suite and an entire floor for toxicology and histology labs . it ' s the office ' s first
real
building since 2005 , and rouse ' s first since he began his term as coroner in 2014 with an office that performs 1 , 200 autopsies a year - more than twice the workload of jefferson parish and with half the budget , he points out . and rouse says he ' s
stoked .
it was forward - thinking to at least provide us the space - now it ' s on me to hustle enough to get the money to do it ,
rouse says , adding that he ' d consider renting the space for extra revenue .
i don ' t want it to be totally mothballed . any space that ' s mothballed too long tends to deteriorate .

we go to the scene , pull up in front of the house , and the guy starts shooting at me ,
rouse says .
i have to believe that a family member may be much more likely to tell us the dangerous stuff in a private setting than they would in the lobby sitting next to the mailman and a funeral home company getting a release next to the receptionist .
the coroner doesn ' t perform an autopsy until the office contacts the next of kin , in person , and tells them what happens next . the family also has time to reach an attorney , and the coroner can call the fbi , the district attorney and other relative parties to attend the autopsy
so everyone is in the room , watching the autopsy at the exact same time ,
rouse says .
the back end of the minyard administration showed signs of decay , failing to classify in - custody deaths and frequently colluding with law enforcement , and , amid the chaos of katrina and the levee failures in september 2005 , refusing to classify the death of henry glover - shot by police in an algiers strip mall and burned in the backseat of a car - as a homicide . rouse classified glover ' s death a homicide in 2015 .
families can request a warrant for a loved one , and the new orleans police department ( nopd ) brings that person to an emergency room or psychiatric ward where a team of psychiatrists evaluates whether there ' s a legal justification for temporarily restricting that person ' s liberty .
in that sense , it ' s true forensic psychiatric work ,
rouse says .
it ' s going in and trying to answer a legal question for which the questions are medical and psychiatric .
though the number of murders has dropped incrementally in new orleans - from 199 in 2011 to 150 in 2015 - it rose again in 2015 with 164 murders . then there are
delayed homicides ,
in which people who survived a gunshot wound have ongoing complications and succumb to their injuries . rouse considers those to be homicides as well . these numbers are the least malleable . whereas a police report offers one account , the coroner makes it final ; there ' s no argument whether a death is really a death .
he ' s only the third in a 50 - year history of new orleans coroners . rouse ' s predecessor , dr . frank minyard , served 10 consecutive terms in the office , beginning in 1974 . the trumpet - playing gynecologist who helped run a methadone clinic for recovering heroin addicts took over the office from carl rabin , who began in 1968 . minyard helped modernize the office and put a public face to the coroner ' s job , notably with pepto bismol - colored bumper stickers asking ,
have you hugged a child today ?
but competence of the coroner ' s office was questioned late last year when police discovered the body of shade sanguis on oct . 25 - he remained in the coroner ' s custody for five weeks before he was identified , despite the fact that nopd had received a missing persons report oct . 16 . the coroner ' s office classified sanguis ' death as a suicide in december , signaling a lack of communication between nopd and the coroner ' s office . rouse says he can ' t discuss what happened in the case due to pending litigation .
i ' m not necessarily the guy who ' s going to be at every ribbon cutting and fundraiser and bouncing around town to shake hands ,
rouse says .
that ' s some of the stuff you have to do to get elected . i ' m operating out of the assumption , somewhat naively , that if you apply yourself to your job , you do good work , you put in good policies that make people believe in the office . . . you connect with the families and bring your integrity to the game , that goes a long way in the politics of it .
we ' re having more and more of these opiate - related deaths . it ' s exceedingly difficult to get detox treatment , even if you have money ,
rouse says .
the lack of intermediate care beds , the lack of a detox facility and the lack of group homes means we have fewer ways to keep people out of the traditional criminal justice system . . . . there ' s lots of eyes on the issue . the question is how successful are we going to be in spending some dollars from the society ' s till on this issue knowing that . . . for every dollar you spend on mental health you save three dollars on the criminal justice system .
ems is saving people now - you have to see ems as part of a larger hospital system . the stuff they can do in the field , be it tourniquets or injecting things straight into the bone for iv fluid , they ' re able to do things now they weren ' t able to do five years ago , certainly 10 years ago ,
rouse says .
unfortunately , if you have to pick a place to get shot , new orleans is a pretty good place . . . . they ' re saving people i can ' t believe they ' re saving . . . . it has been a true education as to how many gunshot wounds people receive when they ' re murdered . we ' re talking 10 , 20 , 30 , 40 gunshots .

when somebody follows you 20 blocks to the pharmacy , where they watch you buy toilet paper , you know your life has changed .
it ' s impossible to satisfy everyone , and i suggest we all stop trying .
[ on her marriage to brad pitt , after two years ] everybody always asks if we ' re happy . give me a break . we ' re married two years . in hollywood years , that ' s forever .
[ on the constant rumors surrounding her split from brad pitt ] there is always going to be the tough and the nasty . you just tune out to that .
[ on the irony of the title of her movie , the break - up ( 2006 ) ] well , you know . i figured just seize the moment .
i always say ,
don ' t make plans , make options
.
if we can say ,
i loved , and i received a lot of love ,
then great . that ' s enough .
i ' ve learned that you can get through things that hurt . nothing will kill you . nothing . people are unbelievable . we have such resilience .
[ on her divorce from brad pitt ] a man divorcing would never be accused of choosing career over children . that really pissed me off . i ' ve never in my life said i don ' t want to have children . i did and i do and i will ! the women who inspire me are the ones who have careers and children ; why would i want to limit myself ? i ' ve always wanted to have children , and i would never give up that experience for a career . i want to have it all .
[ on seeing pictures of angelina jolie and her ex - husband brad pitt together ] i will not let myself down like that - - i also know what feels good and it doesn ' t feel good to harbor anger and resentment . we do have tools to work through stuff . everybody does . ( good morning america , 2005 )
the most unconditional love that you can encounter is with a dog . they ' re excited the minute you come home , and they show the same amount of excitement everyday . they ' re loyal and they ' re always , always faithful .
i would say i couldn ' t be in a relationship without equality , generosity , integrity , spirit , kindness and humor . and awesomeness !
[ on turning age 45 ] i guess it is a milestone . i really try not to focus on it too much to be honest . society focuses on it way more than we need to . i think it ' s always important to reflect anyway , no matter what age you ' re approaching or what milestone is on front of you . reflection should be almost a daily thing if possible . because i was never a ' where do you see yourself in five years ' person , i had no idea . and i didn ' t have a checklist , which really creates a lot less stress in your life .
[ on the weirdest beauty regimen she had tried ] i didn ' t go too crazy . you mean , did i ever put leeches on my face ? the closest i ' ll go to is a derma - roller . google it - it ' s great . it ' s like a little wheel that has little pins , like acupuncture needles in a way , and you roll it and it stimulates your collagen and allows for your products to seep into your skin .
if you want to make me smile , show me puppy videos . cute puppy videos !
[ on angelina jolie and brad pitt ' s divorce ] i ' m just living my life .
[ on office space ( 1999 ) ] it ' s a funny movie . mike judge is just so good . it ' s very interesting that it became such a cult hit . i have no idea what happened . but isn ' t it fantastic ? you know what i really love ? i love when people say ,
i loved you in some movie that didn ' t really get any attention .
like wanderlust ( 2012 ) . that ' s become this underground thing . the studio kind of dumped it , so it didn ' t get a fair chance . now when people see it they just seem to think it ' s the funniest thing they ' ve ever seen . it ' s a very odd , silly movie .
