and that's what interests me. sothere was a meeting an we met, we said... this is darren aronofsky and... i think before hit the chair h went in "well, you rned your career for theast 15 years, i'm tring to do a movie with you a i can't raise any money." >> rose: nobody wants t back a movie you're in. " >> "nobody want to back a movie you're in." and i'm thinng, okay, i've heard this before. he sai"if i do th movie with you, you're goi to listen to everything i say, do everything i tell you and you'renever going to disrespecte in front of the cre and i can't pay you. and i've said this in a lot o interviewbut it went just like that. i liked the fact tha he got riht to the point. nd i also saw you could... i saw in his eyes how smart he is. i realized i not goingo be able to bl smoke up this guy's ass. hes... he hat it when i say it, he's tough. d i think he hates it when i

say it bause he's afraid actors areoing to be afraid of that. but i wt someone who's tough. iant someone who's going to... he kew how to push my buttons. i would do a take and he would say... i thought it was good. and he'd go give another one, give me another one. i do it, thought i was good hen he'd walk over and he says "bring it." d i did it, it wod be better. i thought, okay, get... i ca t out of here now. i wa you to bring it, i just did. nd he'd walk away and jst fore the take he'd come over and he'd go "really bring it, mickey, really bringt." and he knew h to push my butts. he was like a footbl coach. he was like... or a boxing trair who saysust give me one more rod. and because fought for me to do the movie he puthis ass on the li, put his caer on the

line, put his... the financrs dn't even want me to do the movi actually, i got replaced early on. rose: you got rlaced? >> i got replaced by aovie star and... becase they could only raise a vy little amount of mey on me and they cou ve raised twenty something milion on the other actor, who is i very ne actor. and you was okay wi it. verybody else was upt. my agentwas concerned andthis one and that one and and i thought, y know what? i've got to go dwn to mmi, i've got to work out for seven, eight months to pu on anywhere from 25o 28 pods of muscle d get... because ese guys are big. i walked around like 195 and these gu are 230. >>ose: so you keep the job, though? and y go through this regimen? >> right. >> rose: have the skills chnged? are they sw? it like mull thatou can sily back working and they all come back? you know what iean? >> yes, i kn what you mean really well and it's a very god

estion. becae it wasn't a... you know, it wasn't ever a questionf ability, it was question of hat i h someissues... old sues that i hdn't come to terms with. and it was authority. it was authority figures. it was... it was... it was the fact that i couldn't be controlled couldn't betalked down to if i thought it was... it was a lot ofunk and garbage i had in m head that i didn't have the informatio abo to change andix. and you n only do that if you go to somne who's a professional that can help you. >> rose: y've got to sip away all the ings that are getting in between you and... >> i had to take my armorff, which i saw as my strength. and i was afraid dohat. because whe i come from it wa all about being a hard man, being a...ride and respect and l those things, k become a

weakness. >> rose: which is a intesting. but you have tked a lot about is: i mea, there is... you are remarkably open or remarkabl... or you're puing ff a great performance. >> well, th's clever of u but i'm nothat clever to pull off that kind of perrmance. i have no... i'm nothat ambitis that i'm going to blow smoke up you ass, charlie. that's the wai am. but you also pay the price for that but i aso don't have to b that clear about it. i can be diplomat about it now ere before i didn'tare to but the rekar cushions are severe so i understan... >> rose:ut you seem to have... if you take itt face value, you have gned a remarkable insight abt yourself. that m have been therapy....

>> hard work. >> rose:he fact is, you're sitting at ts table and you've ready won a number of awards fobest actor and you're nominated foran oscar. you have ma the journey an t journey...you've made it workorou. hard work, shot at a lifetime. i knowou've been ked this a thousand times before. is the fact th mickey h the light had fueled this performance a randy the r? because here s a guy coming back to the ana a guy who was not the same guy who he w 20 years ago. >> right. >> rose: and hewants it bac and he does it because it's what he knows and what he lovesnd what he is. this is also you. >> very muc so. that'shy when the role w taken away from me i was the only one who was okay with it. because inow why darr ronofsky wanted me to do this part.

darren ew a lot about me. like i said, he got a ve large bryn and he knew..he wanted me to revisit those very ark places and physically h knew that i could g there. and, me i. i thought, wow, i'm going to haveo really work hard and so... a for n money. i didn't know if wanted to do that. but i think the partof my brain went, man, is guy can bring me ba. >> rose: and wh was it you wanted to come back to? being a movie star? youanted respect? ou wanted esteem? >> yes. >> se: you wanted all the things that were about who you... a big old prt of the problem? >> that i didn't have for 14 yers. >> rose: andou used to have. so u have tasted it bore and you knew whait was like? you knew what itas to have people say "youre very good what you do"? >> yes. >> rose: and then you ju pissed ate away for l the wrong asons? because you weren't.. >> i didn't have the too to... yeah. i didn't have thtools.

i' give you a perfect examp, okay? maybe i'll t you in the position. let's say, okay charlie rose once had a job on tevision, great reputation, i looked a your biography, stock? something hpens, for whever and you're in the 7-eleven buying a pack o cigarettes in the middle ofhe night and ere's seven, eight people in line and you walk in and the it's:00 in the mning and somebody in t middle of the line goes "hey, aen't you... an't you u... didt you ud to b ..." >> andou're going "christ, i wanto get my singh cigarettes and getut of here." >> rose: did that hapn to you? >> all the time. >> rose: did i really. >> it crush me. >> rose: in eleven or 7-eleven is a metaphor?db >> nothat i recallone time the 7-eleven a that just... i remember walng for several blocks anit was just... it

crushedme. >>rose: so did all this crushing feed e desire to fig in a different way? >>yes, yes. >> ros to come to grips wth this ia place i do not want to be? >> yes, because i learned instea of fighting a the time ke this i learned to figh in a different way. snul julian schnabel is here. is a painter and a fimaker. his nest work "the diving bell and the buttely" has eared him best director awards cannes and the golden gles. the film has bn nominatedfor four acamy awds: best editing, adaptedcreen pli, cinatography and the new yorker. tncomer wrote "it's a gloris uncked experiences w the most creative use of the camera and the most ding, cruel, heart breaking emotional ploration

that hav appeared in recent vies." welcome back. >> thank you,charlie. >> tell me what your image i of yourself. what ishe selfmage jewel january schnab has? >> a fendlybearto some. >> rose: (ughs) >> a good friend to others. i think that there's a t of people tt i don't know th like me a lot and i think there's a lot of pople that i don't know that se to think tt i... theye scared of me and that i mig bite their head off for some reas. and so ihink when you're a young rson you want to be understood or you nt people to knothe way you are and think as you get older and maybe it doesn't wk out the way you planned it, it really doesn't matter. so we've knwn each otr for a longime and you, actually, prbably know more about that image than... as much as anyon

so it's. can i.. i can't really complain abt being misderstood since i get to do he work that i like too. >> rose: and who do you want to be? >> well, me personally i like to makehings and ihink whatever i reay have to say is in the things that i make. and obviously i've beenoing in the public for a listeningtime and i've change somewhat since e beginning. you have different eds when you're a kid. i thinkas you get older... or in m case certaly you get used to being misunderstood which is fine. but it seems to me that because of th film pople understand me orhink they understand me mo or feel closer t me or less confus by my presee because they could seehat i think about people mny the movie. >> rose: when did u know that you wanted to an artist of y kind? youanted to mke things? >> since i was a baby. i mea, my brother and sister

are much older my sister i elen and a half years older. and my broer's eight and a half years olr. and i was alone a lot. arents... inthose days. i mean, my..they were around 40 years older than me andso i wa alone a lot. and i start to make things and so had a plovian beginning. we said th before, myom just encouraged to do that. i went to the brooklyn museum. an i think a big momnt for me was probably seeing aristotle contemplating the bt of homer at the brooyn museum, when that rembrandt painting show up and i saw it glowingit had this lightglowing. it probably was as an important moment for m as watching the red sea open up when i saw "the ten commandments." but both of tho events were kind of, like, visual. >> rose: you like the freedom of an artist. you like the lmitation... the absence of litations of an

artist. >> i don't lke the word "no." and, you know, if you declare sometng so, it can be and so i don't see there's any... i don't thin there's any reason to acpt things the y they are. and even the limitations death,hich are subject of this film, u can trsgress like john doe d by iting this book. i mean, he to this body that was not worki for him but he had h brain left and he knew at his death was imminent and he escaped dea by putting h life into art. he made this book. e created a job for himself. he workedeveryday, got up at 5:00 in the mning, thouht about what he was goi to say and worked all day and was tired at the end of the day.

and at the end of the day he would travel ound and govisit his girlfriends or g to egypt or do whateverhe ll he wanted to do. and i tnk he lived a whole other life th year of writing. and without any distrction it is. i mean, first isaw the austrophobia of theituation and i thought, , to be locked in your o body. en after hearing what he said when he said "i'm aew person, i'm not the same gu" knew that he feltselected. and i ha a totally different attitude towards e character. and in that i thoughtokay, here'she guy, he doesn't ha go shopping, he doesn't have too to the post office, he doesn't have to do anything except think about what hin to write. for writer, for an artist he got to work every conscus moment and he managed to write the whole book in less than a year, really, if y think of thetime he was in the coma and thtime that it takes the print the book. he diin the about a year. >> rose: and what s the time beeen the printing of the book and his death? >> ten days.

>> ros tell me about the significance ofhat. >> think when they say raison d'etre, they're not kdding, reason to be. >> rose: he had no reason after that. he had done whathe had completed. >> and what happens inhe movie... one of my forite moments in the movie is where he'having this attack and the sound goes t of the film and you hair a voice say "i havene more thought, we're going to be later ifhe theater then i sank into a coma" and you know he transfeed his life to us. and she picks up the baton and he then is in the hospital and saysis it aook?" >>. >> rose:ell me story of the book becausit has not oped wide yet and se peopl when we talk aut this book and what comes out of this movie, we want to have a rference to it. >okay, that's good idea. thre was a man who was 42 years d, he was in perfect health, he'd never been sick before. he ges to visit his family, he separated from his wife and kids, theyeren't mared but

the mother of his cldren. and he has aassive stroke. and it happens theay that ere's a strike inrance. hs in the countryside and h wakes up in a hospital on the coast north of calaisnd he stuck inside of his body and he can only... well, he has two eyes but they have to sew one o his eyes up. so hcan only blink his left eye. d he's...t's called "locked in syndrome." soe's locked in his body. and the nurses devise...is speech therapist devise a system by which the letters thatare most frequent in the french phabet come in thatrder and blinks.... >> rose: yes, no,es, no, yes, no. >> and so in this lock winded... orno wind, long winded way,

is arduous way, he blink ths is boo and the book.... >> rose: gves purpose to his life locked in? >> absoluty. and esseially what he says is "had i bee blin deaf would t that it take the hrsh light of disasteror me toind the new nature. and in that he has 2020 retrospect vion. describes his situation as being stuck inside a dying bell. that one of the... kind of loo like a dieval tortu chamber. u have a steel helt that's bolted to your che, weighton your fe ands that device for walking on the bottom the oan. so it was a pretty strong metaphor. i wadown under the water, not in it,but matthew almer rik, who is the actor who did a great job, he was actually in that ontraption and it is claustrophobic. >> re: and on purpo you wanted to create the claustrophobia in the beginning. >> yes. >> rose: before youreated the power of the mi.

>> wl, we have to take that trip. i mean, a movie is just accumulation of events. it's the same thi in a paiing, too. ifou've got one corner ofthe picture that no good, the whole painting is no good. if you have one moment of your movie th's weak, the movie is no go. you can have a movie thas 95% good. it's ether all prfect or it's not. and so at the end, no mtter how yore going to tell that story, one pern might say, well, it not linear. it's not te. it's an acculation of events d at the end of an hour a fif-three minutes, you walk o of there and it er worked or it didn't. >> rose: yourad died before could see the movie. yes. >> rose: d how hardas that? that was... i didn't realize that it was going to be so difficult. since he was 92 i thought he'd live rever. i didt know... i mean, he didn't talk me until i was out 20. t the last 30 yars of his
