“I think of the added pressures that black men have when making love because they feel that they are expected to perform in some legendary way—Mandingo sex. What was that expression? Once go black, you can't go back.”

“Given our remote location, logistics were a nightmare. We were ambushed with new problems almost every hour. We did not have the budget  –  the luxury hotel rooms or great catering or frequent of- days –  to lubricate the bone- on- bone clashes that erupted with sickening regularity. Eventually, civilization broke down in the jungle. The savage spirit of the script spilled of the pages and came to haunt us on the sets. The white crew turned into the truculent jungle- lodge guests, unhappy with the service they were receiving. We became the irreverent staf, doing what we had to, but mocking them behind their backs. Somehow, we held it together and fnished flming. This time, unlike in Annie , there was a diference between how Pradip visualized the flm and how I imagined it. His approach, with the actors as well as the staging, was gentle, realistic, poker- faced. He softened the savagery and the occasional vulgarity of the script. I thought it ought to be enhanced, lifted half an inch of the foor. I wanted it to have a slightly surreal, merciless, metallic quality.”

“Eddie Murphy recalled his last conversation with Sylvester Stallone – they haven’t spoken since: “He thought I fucked his wife. He heard the rumor that me and Brigitte [Nielsen] behaved less than professionally together (while making Beverly Hills Cop II), and he believed it. He came after me and said, ‘YOU FUCKED MY WIFE!’ I said, ‘Down, brother, I didn’t fuck your wife!’ We talked about it, but I guess somewhere in the back of his head, he’s convinced himself he’ll never really know the truth. Sly and I liked each other, too, but after the weirdness with Brigitte, it was ruined. I didn’t fuck her. Did I ever want to fuck Gitte? No, she’s not my type. She was married. And married to somebody who was my friend. I’m not that kind of guy.”
