Harrison Ford: I don't think there was any particular challenge to it at all. I'm from the "let's pretend" school of acting. It's not very complicated for me. I had a lot of material that I could use for research on Branch Rickey. There were a lot of things written about him and that he wrote. It makes it actually easier because there was so much background for the character. I didn't have to make much up. I thought it was a terrific script so it was clear what the job to be done by the character in any given scene. A good director and wonderful actors to worth: it was pure joy.
