Johnny, we hardly... oh you know what.

On the “making-of” documentary, on the “Dirty Dozen” dvd, Trini Lopez speaks of an incident during filming. He told John Cassavetes one day that he, in looking at the dailies, thought the Cassavetes’ performance was a certainty for an Oscar nomination. Cassavetes looked at him and told him that he did not think so.
You one thing I would have to say about Cassavetes’ performance in that film. For most other actors, that was the performance of a lifetime, but for John, that role was a piece of cake.
