And I love a scary movie. It makes your toes curl and it's not you going through it.

I've always been hopeless at everything when I was a kid. That's why I became an actor - 'cause I couldn't do anything else.

I am young! Being creative and keeping your brain occupied is very sensible because if you don't you die, slowly.

I think the first British actor who really worked well in cinema was Albert Finney. He was a back-street Marlon Brando. He brought a great wittiness and power to the screen. The best actor we've had.

I found a way into the acting business because I thought, well, it beats working for a living, and so that's what I do. But I still feel like a bit of a stranger in it all. I've never really belonged anywhere.

I've got no need to prove to myself that I can do Shakespeare. I've done it.

I'd like to wake up and look like Brad Pitt in the morning, but I don't. I look in the mirror, and I see me.
