Here is just a small sample of some of the topics Nicolas Cage covered in a fast-talking, quickly moving, and oddly satisfying interview with Jimmy Fallon on 'The Tonight Show' last night: childhood Kiss performances, if it's cool we know what the Kiss guys look like without make-up, life insurance, (almost) dying while surfing, a tiny sculpture Jim Carrey made of him, a lizard wearing a top hat -- and that's just stuff that happens in the first half of the interview (the second half is embedded below).

Cage also talked about his latest project -- David Gordon Green's Southern gothic 'Joe' -- but if you're a Cage fan, you don't need to hear anything else beyond his random musings on everything to realize you should see the film (which is actually pretty great) and everything else he does.
