Everything changes as you get older - your mind, your body, the way you view the world.

We're living in hard times.

Whatever happens in my life from now on, I know the day I finally die - the final act of my script - people will always make references to the work I’ve done with Almodóvar.

Every time, I reaffirm in myself that the more comfortable you are, the less you are creating. You have to feel a little bit of pain in the creation.

Im now projecting my career in a totally different direction. I am going to work less-way less. And I want to work better. I want to direct again, I want to do more theatre, and I want to do exactly those movies that I want to do.

No, obviously, the time goes by, the English gets better. Ever since I met Melanie, that was almost nine years ago now, you have to just speak the language continuously, hone every word. So, and the proof for me of that, was actually in theater. It has to be two hours and 45 minutes on the stage speaking a language that is not your language, and singing.

It's about paying attention to the little things, the details... Constantly rediscovering your partner, knowing there's a way out of any crisis.
