Shall we talk politics for a moment? I'm sure like most actors you're all watching the Republican field, just waiting for a candidate to get behind. CLOONEY: I'm just hoping Gingrich gets in. Come on, Newt! Actually there's a really good field out there. I like Barack Obama a lot. I've spent some time with him. PITT: You just cost him votes. CLOONEY: I've actually had that conversation with him, just saying "Look, I'll give you whatever support you need-including staying completely away from you." Actors have done a lot of damage...
...subject of charisma, you've each been called the last great movie star at one point or another. Are we really running out of movie stars, and is that, like, a problem?

DAMON: One of the most underrated actors right now as a leading man is Christian Bale. He turned in two great performances last year. He was great in The Prestige, and he was great in this movie called Harsh Times. BARKIN: I like the very young Ryan Gosling. CLOONEY: That couple-he goes out with Rachel McAdams ... BARKIN: Splitsville. Don't you read Us? CLOONEY: Well, those were...
What was it like being the only woman in the cast? BARKIN: Exhausting. CLOONEY: You're a woman? BARKIN: I tried to pack 14 of you into just a few weeks. It's a lot of ground to cover. CLOONEY: If there's anybody who could do it ... BARKIN: I started with Carl [Reiner] and worked back from there. CLOONEY: Only fair. He could go at any minute...
