It's always difficult to really sum up exactly why a relationship works.

My philosophy about the whole thing is that awards are like gifts: it's lovely to receive them, and it is very bad form to covet them.

They say that theater is the actor's medium, television is the writer's medium and film is the director's medium, and it's really true.

I get invited to literally every single movie premiere that's going on.

I was playing pretty boys and these angelic roles like Nicholas Nickleby and all that stuff. And I was like, 'What am I doing? This isn't who I am, as a man or an artist.' I had to overcome people's belief that I was too pretty to be a badass.

If I'd seen a grown man beating a crippled boy, of course I'd intervene. If my father died and left my mother destitute, it's your instinct to take care of her. So when I started to think about it in those terms, it started to make sense to me

I'm usually the guy who knocks everyone out in order to get the girl.
