As far as my notoriety or whatever, I haven't been the star of a hit film.

The thing with being able to do accents is that it's still completely separate from being an actor.

Acting can be very selfish and all-consuming.

With the movies, you do your preparation on your own. It's much more internalized and ... the actual performance is a kind of, just trying to capture one moment at a time, for the first time.

I've never felt that I've had some great fashion sense of my own - I tend to wear what my wife tells me to wear.

I don't separate Robert DeNiro's comedy from the serious stuff. The one thing I realize working with him in all of his work, is that he doesn't do anything unless something happens to him in scenes - unless something happens to make him react. He never came in with a set idea of how he was going to do it, he never came in with guns blazing. He would just show up and wait to see what happened.

People are always going to identify with what it's like living in society and have people judge you in certain ways, and how you can be strong enough to be your own person and all those good things.
