Casting a film, you can have the greatest actors in a film and it doesn't work. It's a combination of all of the elements.

All directors are control freaks and very obsessive. I get the feeling that directors as kids, they all have had a childhood with not too much contact with other kids. They constructed their own reality and they continue to do it. It's a funny breed, directors.

if a real God were actually so vain as to constantly demand worship, then he would not be worth it.

I played a heap of snow in a school play. I was under a sheet, and crawled out when spring came. I often say I'll never reach the same artistic level again.

Actors are different. Some actors play themselves very successfully, but I come from the theater. Having done Shakespeare, we sometimes did three or four characters in the same play.

Theres nothing more reassuring than a world thats crazier than you are.

I don't think that people in the world, in general, have too many chances.
