When I did Sean Penn’s movie, I think I was living in, like, a $500-a-month room, and someone called me up or bumped into me and asked me if I’d come up to work for a day.

Obviously it's one of my biggest wins, and especially after a long layoff, to come back out and win in my fifth start means a lot.
