Middle Age Hollywood

Michael Douglas opens up to Vanity Fair in their April 2010 issue, on newsstands in New York and L.A. on Wednesday (March 3) and nationally next Tuesday (March 9).

Here’s what the 65-year-old Wall Street 2 actor had to share:

On his son, Cameron, who’s in prison for drug-trafficking charges: “Anybody who has a relative or child in substance abuse has some idea of what this feels like. It will ultimately be a painful lesson and very expensive as far as time is concerned. I don’t wish it on anybody, but then, you know, look, everybody’s got difficult things in life.”

On what he’s learned about making marriage work: “We always tend to be kinder or make more of an effort to strangers than we do to the person closest to us.”
