I don't really see the point in making a film unless you can think of a good reason to do it.

I think escapism is very important, certainly in my life. I love nothing more than escaping into the world of a film or a novel. To be involved in creating that for other people is a privilege.

Sexuality is a topic that has huge shifts in -society. Attitudes toward different sexualities change, but the actual sexuality of a human being is something that's consistent, and it's consistently interesting, and so people write about it.

I think if actors don't think of themselves as funny in real life they think they can't do comedy.

We live in a youth-obsessed, aesthetically obsessed culture. That is no more evident than in the film industry.

Maybe Oliver Stone doesn't lend himself well to remakes or sequels, because he does them so well the first time.

I can't run. I start getting twinges. If I were filmed running, it would be awful.
