It's easy to forget just how extensive of a television and film career Bronson Pinchot has had, that is, until you read this in-depth interview with the 80s sitcom icon with The Onion's The A.V. Club.
In it, Bronson dishes on his experiences working with Tom Cruise, Denzel Washington, Eddie Murphy and Tom Hanks. While most of what he reveals isn't all that surprising, it is fascinating.
On Working With Tom Cruise in Risky Business: "We didn't know it was going to be a big hit. We thought Tom [Cruise] was the biggest bore on the face of the Earth...He was tense and made constant, constant unrelated homophobic comments, like, 'You want some ice cream, in case there are no gay people there?'...It was like, 'It's a nice day, I'm glad there are no gay people standing here.' Very, very strange."
On Tom Hanks: "He is a wonderful and genuine and lovely and down-to-earth person. I don't know how he does that...He's always been a delightful person, so it's not really true that big stars need to be driven and repulsive, because he's anything but."
