The medium is not the message - the message is the message.
Penn Jillette

Penn Jillette
But it's much more exciting to make Die Hard. One of the reasons that I think that movie is so successful is it deals with those very important blue-collar relationship themes. But it's more visually beautiful to show things blowing up. It just gives you more on the screen.
Penn Jillette

Penn Jillette

Penn Jillette

Penn Jillette
