Every so often you read a play and a character just speaks to you - almost seems to speak through you, in fact.

One of the most, in a weird way, encouraging things a director can say to an actor - I know this as an actor - is when you ask them a question, they say, I don't know - 'cause it means there's some space there for you to find out. And it means that there's going to be a process.

I have this feeling that if I could sort out what's on my dining room table, everything would fall into place.

I am the character you are not supposed to like.

Snow Cake is a lovely film. Really proud of that. We shot it in 21 days. I thought Sigourney was amazing in it. And very, very accurate. I think there was some element that thought she had pushed it too far. But not at all when you do the amount of homework she had done and spent the amount of time she did with adult autistics. She was right on the money. And I think Marc Evans is a terrific director. He's a sweet, open, honest man and a really good director of actors.

Give me a window and I'll stare out it.

From my experience, I think that every actor has to make sure that they're in charge of their own career somehow or other.
