If they come on television I will flick off. I've no idea whether my son has watched 'Apollo 13'."We never talk about films. I'm pretty sure they've never seen 'Footloose'."The 50-year-old star and his wife Kyra Sedgwick - who starred with Kevin in 'Murder in the First' and 'The Woodsman' - has always given his kids as normal an upbringing as possible.He added: "Their idea of us is as parents, not film actors. The idea of them watching us pretend to be other people is not that attractive."We're the people who tell them to clear up their room. Who make pancakes on a Sunday."
