    Stuck in the middle with Michael Madsen



    Michael Madsen, who is in town to promote his Slamdance film "You Might As Well Live," was asked why he works so much. He has 27 films in some sort of production status, according to Internet Movie Database.

    Well, for one thing, he said, he doesn't trust IMDB, he said. Someone once told him to read a script for a friend of a friend of a friend, so he read it. Next thing he knew, he said, IMDB attached him to the project.
    Plus, working means money, he said, frankly. "I have six children and I live in Malibu," Madsen said. "My kids aren't going to move to a trailer park while Daddy waits for the perfect role. I'm used to a certain standard of living."

    Madsen, who made a Park City film festival splash years ago as a membr of "Reservoir Dogs," said he always enjoy the Park City film festivals. "It's a bit of an honor to be there," he said. "I enjoy the prestige of the whole thing."
