December 5, 2001 — 'Liz-Biz-News' has posted an amazing article by the Canadian Press with Tom Cruise describing 'Vanilla Sky'. Here's a clip from that article:
As for Vanilla Sky, Cameron Crowe's enigmatic and surreal film that opens next week, the actor insisted he's very different from the character he played, a wealthy New York City publishing heir. David Aames, by all accounts a pampered prince of the city, is just "snow-boarding through life," says Cruise, not recognizing his responsibilities or the impact of the casual sex he has with women. "This film is embracing a guy searching for humanity and recognizing the little moments in our lives and the ripple effect that occurs in all of us."

Tom Cruise also did "Live at MUCH." Here's a clip from the transcript:
