I couldn't be with someone who is depressed all the time.

Listen, I think movies serve many different purposes, from those movies that are frivolous and just an entertainment, to movies that just go to exploring the complexities of the human soul. Everything is valid if it's done with honesty and dignity, and I actually do both of those types of movies in my career.

I do yoga every morning, then I run for half an hour and take a sauna.

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.

I completely take on the risk, the poker game, which being an artist means, and I'm going to try to make a film which honestly reflects what I have in my head.

I've never liked watching real-life couples play couples onscreen or onstage. It takes me out of the story.

I long to get back into theater.
