I would like to make it known, on this program, loud and clear, that I would absolutely embrace with all five of my arms being a Bond villain.

My line-learning is very special. I like to learn the dialogue of the whole film before I arrive.

We are adjusters. We empathize, we change rhythm and above all we listen to our fellow actors-if they're good actors.

I just loved playing a man who was unafraid of making an idiot of himself in the process of falling in love. I found that admirable.

I'm very in love with the fact that the camera is revolted by acting and loves behaviour.

I never read anything in print about me. It started with not reading reviews and with the greatest respect to my publicist here, I never read interviews. I was there when I gave them. I never read reviews. I was there when I did the jobs - so I'm totally immune. I live in a bubble.

But filming is good for you, because the crew isn't allowed to laugh. You can't get addicted to getting the laugh.
