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

I do remember, as a child, that I always imagined, when I was maybe 6 or 7, my fantasy was that everywhere I went I was being followed by an invisible film crew.

I think I'm more bonded, emotionally and in a craft sense, to films that tell extraordinary stories about extraordinary destinies.

As an actor there's no autonomy, unless you're prepared to risk the possibility of starving.

There is so much to do on a film set. It is an extraordinarily invigorating and wonderful place to be, when things are running well.

In order to inhabit a villain, you mustn't care what the audience think of you. That's not why you are there. You mustn't care for a second whether the audience likes you or dislikes you. Your villain has to be way beyond that.

I think that various styles and methods and approaches are an invention of people who don't understand the process of acting and who try very hard to label things.
